What kind of lighter do you use?

[ppovar]

I use a very old "Marlboro" catalytic single flame
I eventually also go with Palio "something" dual flame
I bought a Zippo BLU, but never worked well

I use my Lambourghini lighter (the one in the middle)...

ggiese - You ever try their cutters? I'm looking for a nice cutter that will cut like a samurai sword. I saw they have some crazy looking cutters and wondered if you have any first hand experience with them

The cutters are quality, but also very pricey. However, they're truly made to match the lighters...

Take a look at the Xikar's - I think you'll get comparable quality, a bit less pricey - and they have a lifetime warranty. My choice:

Nice, I got two xikars (one as a gift) and they are my choice cutter. They cut great but one of them seems to notch the cigars sometimes. By notch I mean the blades aren't completely flush with each other and I'll notice a small difference in heights near the middle of the cut.

I just ordered a Palio and some 65% beads as an early Christmas gift for myself so we will see if the Palio holds up to its reputation

For my smaller gauge cigars away from home I'll use my single flame Firebird:


For my larger gauge cigars away from home, I use my triple torch Rhino:


At home I have a cheap tabletop torch for my smokes:


On calm days on my patio, I'll use matches with cedar stips.

I have a few lotus lighters which are fantastic. I have a colibri which clogs at least once a year and I have a vector megapump which is old reliable.
