I am not a big fan of the V-cut, especially on Torpedos....
I would start off at about 1/4 inch and cut off more if you need it..... you can always cut more if needed but ya can't put more back on if ya cut off too much
I HATE MOOCHERS !!!

I'm not big on doing reviews, tobacco doesn't taste like "cocoa" or "nutty" or "mocha" to me, it tastes like freakin' TOBACCO. I know what I like and I really don't care what other people think of other cigars. I've never read a review and said to myself "Wow, that sounds like a cigar I'd like to try!"

good stuff . thanks for the info. I bought the v-cutter on a whim. I was ordering some cigar and needed them overnighted. since I was paying the overnight shipping charge, I figured the cutter would not have costed me that much more- since shipping was $20.
so what type of cigar would people use a v-cutter on ?

i usually cut between a quarter inch and a half inch on a torp.....
some people like v-cuts....only to be used on a round...i don't think you get as much flavor with a v-cut or a punch cut....i do use a punch once in a great while...not even sure why..

People generally use v cutters on larger ring (48 and higher) cigars. I personally don't like a v-cut at allbut that's just me.
As far as cutting a torpedo, you've already received some great advice. I use a punch cutter on my cigars but NOT on a torpedo. For those I use a guillotine and cut it half way down. I rarely ever smoke torpedos.....

I like Torp's and Beli's most the time. I have a V cutter I use sometimes. It works great for me. What kind of cigar did you smoke?

how do you cut a torpedo with a v-cutter ? my v-cutter makes a tiny opening. The Topedo I cut wuth it was a 50 gauge. the opening was so small i was only able to get a little flow going. Do some v-cutter cut a bigger opening then others?Originally Posted by Roham

Use a large guillotine (open-ended, not one of those that have a backing and limit how much you can cut off the cigar) and angle it while you cut, so you're cutting on an angle. Try to cut only about 1/4 to 1/2 inch off the end, no more. The angled cut always gives me a good draw.
There's only two kinds of cigars, the kind you like and the kind you don't.
