Cigar Smokers - Guillotine / Punch / V cut?

[Skydiver Nick]

As the title implies, what cut do you prefer and why?

Do you cut certain sizes with a different method? Please discuss.

Scizzors, theyre sexy.

used to be a guillotine, scissors kind of guy.. but lately I find myself punching more and more cigars. V-cutter just doesnt work for me.

I used to like a clean punch but lately have been using guillotine.

I like a clean, wide cut so I go for a dual-blade guillotine when I can. I've got a couple of single-bladed models, a few punches, and maybe even a v-cutter around here that I use either when traveling or for very small ring-gauge cigars (in the case of the v-cut). I find the guillotine just has a better feel and smoking experience.

Guillotine.

I use a similar cutter by Xikar. No complaints.

 

[A Canuker]

I have a punch that sits on my key chain. Most often I use that but here and there I'll Guillotine.

 

[Droog]

Guillotine, because I inherited an antique one.

I have one of these that I like but lately I've been using a cheap punch more often.

I personally scissor with all torpedos and punch with everything else.

 

[hangten]

not a fan of Xikar cutters. My trusty zino guillotine is perfect.

Guillotine for parejos, V-cut for most figurados.
