cutting cigar in half?

[Fat Freddy]

Can a double-ended cigar be cut into two? Sorry if I don't have the correct terminology but I have one or two cigars that, except for the band, I cannot tell which end is which. Torpedo shaped on both ends, and looks as if I could chop it in two and have two smokes.

Problems? Comments? Thanks!

This would be a perfecto......I think you would probably have un-raveling problems, but if its a Gurkha perfecto you'll most likely have those anyway, right DeeDubya?

Yes, it will unravel.

now something like a toro or lonsdale can be cut in half, but the foot half will need to be smoked VERY carefully, it will be just like smoking a cigar that you cut too much cap off.

the easiest way to tell which enb to light, is to imagine trying to slide a toothpick inder the wrapper near the middle of the cigar, if you did, the other end of the toothpick would point to the end you need to light. may come in handy if you lose the band on that perfecto

Or if the bands are upside down. I hear thats common on cigars that are from Argentinia.

Damn Dennis, you're full of all kinds of neat tricks.........are you really McGyver?

I think Argentinia is around Katy, Texas. Lots of stuff is bass ackward there.
