steelcity Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 I really like my Colibri SV cutter. Two options in one. Generally one of my lighters has a punch so all three options are taken care of.

cigarzfan Posted June 11, 2019 Author Posted June 11, 2019 I took a long hiatus from smoking cigars and am glad to be back in it. V-Cuts just didn't seem as prevalent 10 years ago. However, I noticed that many people were using Colibri V-Cut. So I bought one myself to try out. It was instantly my new favorite way to cut!
cigarzfan Posted June 11, 2019 Author Posted June 11, 2019 "Peter James cigar case". Wow. $400. That ain't no joke!
luckme10 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 Smokngear travelling cigar case with perfecdraw. Giant stinky ashtray. The travelling case has been a godsend. Removable separate storage pouch to put lighter and cutter so it can't mingle with the cigar. Multiple zipper compartments and a magnetized back to put on your motorcycle, or in my case, the fridge. Not bad for $30 bucks. 1
BrightonCorgi Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 Cigar Scissors are cool to have. Table lighter if they smoke at home. Dunhill ashtray; can't go wrong.

I have a little pair of Solingen cigar scissors in a leather pouch I bought many years ago and they are cool to have. I never think to use them but they are very easy to use and they work great.

I keep it in the draw with our silverware since I normally cut cigars over the kitchen sink.

I keep it in the draw with our silverware since I normally cut cigars over the kitchen sink. No, mine are non-folding also. They are pocket sized and slide into a little black leather carrying pouch. Just a few inches long and very thin. Of all the things I lost and tossed over the years, I always held onto them because they work so well and I thought they were really cool and well-designed. They are very precise. I never think to pull them out at home, but I should.
shippers Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 Perfecdraw - it's an absolute must. It has saved every plugged cigar I have put to it and allowed me to adjust the draw of other cigars to my liking. 2
LLC Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 I'm enjoying mine. The quality is great. My runner up accessory is the Colibri V-Cut. Now I just need to find a small, reliable lighter for the other pouch. This is the Xikar lighter and cutter I use in mine. So far the lighter has been reliable but of course the tank is small.

CampDelta369 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 This ^^^ @shippers PerfectDraw is the ultimate FOH tool. IMO Turned morning possible Suck fest into a 91 point cigar of the month. Plug was right at first band. 4

LLC Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 It is pricey, but a high quality leather piece. Exactly; not made in China. From the web site:The Peter James Leather Cigar Case holds everything you need. Hand made in North America using imported Italian leather and contained by a durable dual American made metal zipper, this product is not only convenient, but acts as a statement piece.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk How do you use them? For travel, I see the durability of a Xikar hard case. With a leather case, I'd be afraid of movement and breakage. In other words, I see appearance over function with the Leather Case but function over appearance with $20 Xikar hard case.
cigcars Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 *As long as we're talking "pricey" - how about a Daniel Marshall humidor!
