How to choose the right cigar cutter?

Consider the type of cigar you smoke

If you frequently smoke large cigars you will need a cigar cutter with an opening large enough to fit the circumference of the cigar. Conversely, if you primarily smoke smaller cigars, such as 36 gauge or smaller cigars, you can get away with a cigar cutter that has a smaller opening.

Consider the type of cut you prefer

There are two main types of cuts: straight cuts and wedge cuts. Straight cuts are made with a sharp blade that cuts cleanly through the head of the cigar, resulting in a smooth draw and even burn. Wedge cuts are made with a blunt blade that creates a slanted cut, which some smokers prefer for its ability to evenly distribute the flavor profile of the cigar. If you're not sure which type of cut you prefer, try experimenting with both straight and wedge cuts to see which you prefer.

Consider your budget

Cigar cutters range in price from around €10 to over €250 or more. There are many great options available at all price points, so it is important to consider your budget when choosing a cigar cutter. For example, if you are looking for a high quality accessory but don't want to spend too much money, the Davidoff Prestige is a good option; it sells for about $60 and holds up to 54 ring gauge cigars. On the other hand, if you have unlimited funds and are looking for the best of the best, check out the S.T Dupont Line 2 Double Gold Plated Guillotine Cutter, it's priced at over $200, but it can cut up to 70 ring gauge cigars and features beautiful gold plating.

Conclusion

Different brands of cigar cutters offer different benefits, so it's important to choose the right one for your needs. Consider the type of cigar you smoke, the type of cut you prefer and your budget when making your decision. With a little research, you're sure to find the perfect cigar cutter for you.
