    Scroto, you better get yourself a copy of this book, you'll need to read it:
    TBSCigars - "On Holiday"
    Grammar - It's the difference between knowing your crap and knowing you're crap.

    My friend has a "Little Guy" cutter. Where he bought it it was marked at 125, the retail price, but they didn't understand why it was so expensive so they sold it to him for $10.00. It is a clean "cat's eye" type cut but he claims it feels awkward in your mouth-- he is used to a clean guillotine cut. Don't pay the outrageous price for one. Personally I have tried it; its not bad. I do prefer the traditional cut.

    Damn, I wish all retailers were as confused as that!

    Supposedly the cat-eye cut makes more of the residue appear on the sides leaving the middle of the cigar cleaner with a better draw. I don't know if thats true, I use a cheapo plastic double blade cutter

    The "V" cutter is supposed to do a real nice job on Torpedo's. I've heard people raving about it. I had a Montecristo #2 cut with the V cutter and didn't care for the draw. I guess, to each his own...

    I used a guillotine cutter on all cigars, but was having draw problems with torpedos. I bought a V cutter and it works much better on Torpedos than my traditional cutter.
    There's only two kinds of cigars, the kind you like and the kind you don't.
