Cigar Cutter Review - Colibri V Cutter

[pandyboy]

This is a great cutter. Thought I would give it a review. Want sure where to post it so it ended up here.

Thanks for the review.  Been using a V-Cutter more and more lately and have actually been looking at the Collibri you reviewed, think I'll just give it a whirl.  Cheers.

Never used a V cutter before.  May have to give it a try.

This is the one I would get. I've been favouring it more than a straight cut.

I watched the whole video from start to finish without sound. So all that I had were your hand gestures to go by "what you were experiencing". I loved the part where you hunted around until you found out how it opened. You were very decisive on the cut so it made me think that you knew how the thing worked. Then feeling the weight of the cutter and the acknowledgement that it was a cutter of quality. Your cross cultural communication skills are amazing.

Ordered one recently after a few 'bad' wind tunnel experiences with larger ring gauges. Looking forward to giving it a go. Thanks for the review.

Thank you. Sound would have been better though!

No problem. Hope you get on with it!

Good stuff.  Always favored a V cut.  Currently though I've been playing it straight.  I will say the cheap V cutters are generally crap. Have two of the Xikar V cutters and have been very happy with them.

Great review and a great cutter. I use only v-cuts when smoking cigars thinner than a 42 and this cutter is solid, one of my three go-to cutters.

   * Hey, thanks a million for that review, Pandyboy!   I've BEEN interested in a more quality brand V-cutter like the Colibri or Xikar V-cutters. Right now I'm making due with some $2.00 freebies and lower priced ones I've acquired previously. The clean cut and depth demonstrated in this video of the Colibri V-cutter is awesome! Again, thanks! 

[CaptainQuintero]

Great stuff! Colibri has really gotten over that ugly bump in quality from a few years back. I've a lighter from them that was my first 'proper lighter' and it's been going strong for nearly a decade now

ordered one after watching your review

I have the Colibri V and it works perfectly everytime, heavy in construction and makes perfect v cut with ease. 

[NorCalAaron]

Thanks for sharing the nice review, I've enjoyed my Colibri V as well especially on torpedos and larger ring gauge smokes.  

[pandyboy]

Thanks for all the comments. I'll look to review some more stuff!

I enjoy my Xikar v-cutter also, but you have two?

well, there's a story there.   And I'm going to remedy that soon.  I bought a good pal one to give at Christmas as there was a Xikar event I got a 20% off deal on.  But that cutter ended up in the center cnsole of the car ans I've been using it to cut my road sticks for 5 months.  It's now in a padded envelope on my desk and I'll get it out to him soon....

Aah...makes perfect sense!

The Colibri is definitely one of the 2 best v-cutters on the market.  Check out the "Jaws" V-Cutter from Lotus as well.  Super wide angle with a serrated blade that cuts like no other v-cutter out there.
