    I think they're pretty stupid. The whole idea is pretty dumb for a variety of reasons:

    1. If you've already got an ashtray, you have no use or need for these. I can't remember the last time I was in a casino or a smoke shop and there were no ashtrays.
    2. They're too lightweight, unsteady and will absolutely fall over without much effort at all.
    3. They're ugly.
    4. Who leaves their $40.00+ cigar cutter laying around with a cork with a magnet glued to the bottom of it while they go to the bathroom or to get another drink? Why not just leave a note "Please feel free to steal this cigar cutter and while you're at it, I was stupid enough to leave my wallet on my seat so steal that too while you're at it."

    Will, thanks for the link to the hurricane clips, I had never seen that thread before. I've been smoking in my garage lately and haven't bothered to bring an ashtray out there BUT I have a huge box of hurricane clips that I'll use for cigar holders.

    Sorry QueensOfSmoke, this has got to be one of the absolute dumbest things I've ever seen.

    Whatever happened to the Seattle Pilots?

    At least use a stronger and smaller magnet and then embed it into the bottom of the cork! The magnets from my electric tooth brush head are crazy powerful for their size. They are neodymium magnets. I pull them off before I discard my head every few months. And with a bit of glue I've turned cheep Mexican, Austrian, and India made magnets into refrigerator power houses! But ya, who uses a holder? When I walk into a store I lay my cigar down against the wall as I walk in and hope to god no one noticed or would bother to pick it up. Haha.
