How do you like that Xikar ex2 Gambit? Is that a torch? Seems to be a popular lighter.

I have the same cutter and lighter, but my cutter has little screws all around it, and you have me beat on the ashtray

This lighter is awesome too. I like how the double flames unite to become one larger flame.

How do you like the scissors in comparison to a guillotine?

How do you like the scissors in comparison to a guillotine?
My standard guillotine is a Xikar xi whatever. I like the scissors a bit more because it is easier for me to see where I'm actually cutting. With the Xikar sometimes it's hard to see where on the cap I'm cutting, but with the scissors, I can see it every single time.

It always peaks my interest when I see them, I'll have to try a pair out one of these days.

Here's everything...lots of random lighters from passes/trades/giveaways etc.
Have the Xikar X8 and XV as well as the monetecristo punch.
Herfador which I use often and a single tube.
http://i811.photobucket.com/albums/zz33/hydroslyder/CigarBum/0FF36BBA-608E-49BF-96C2-3902987D5F3A_zpskwhq0wdy.jpg
Here's what I use regularly, Vector lighter which I bought with my ever online cigar order. It is a triple flame and has been very reliable and has a decent retractable punch. Also the Xikar X8 cutter which also was part of that first order and is super sharp and cut's perfectly every time.
Coming in around $50 bucks for the pair I have been quite happy with their performance as I've gotten into and grown into this hobby.
I'm starting to work in the V-Cutter but the jury is still out on what my preference is.

no it's a present from a good friend....If DogRockets send me one of those big cigars I'll get it out an use it..until then it is only for special cigars...when I use it I'll post for you.
Well, I may have to make you another one for everyday use.
I got on DogRockets, I think something may be in the mail,sans poop though. He said something about not wanting to start a crap war or something??

no I wouldnt..what you do with that ash tray is your decision as the turnin deal say's.. Horseshoe took my cherry when I joined the forum..so I have a softy spot for him...as for you..you were my second hug...
Who was it we gave heat to, for being hesitant to drop ash in it? Thought you admonished them, for not using it for its intent. Then I'm going to build a giant shadow box, with non-glare glass, big brass plate, and your picture on mine and hang it in my den, with an accent light over it lol.

I'm waiting on it to arrive, velvet will be chosen then.....thinking green. So you ARE a sentimental guy, awesome. I'm that way with a lot of the cigars I buy.
Use that lighter on Sunday...how bout? My experience, those awesome gifts from friends mean more when you see them frequently. Just my $.02.

because of the push Ive put it in the pipe glass case she got me, so I can see it an think about my first time with Horseshoe..still got that fancy cigar you sent right on top in the humi...
Sentimentally speaking.....you got me there. As long as those treasures are where you can see them.....good to go!

First off he opts for red Velvet now, thinking it might be Green Velvet.
Sure hope if the final choice turns out to be Blue Velvet this will be on a big flat screen on the opposite wall.

I only need a V-cutter, a decent lighter and an ashtray and I am good to go. In a real pinch the cutter doubles as a cigar holder. :)

Trackmyer :thumb: Kept losing them before keeping with my cigar tools.....it just made sense. Haven't lost one since. You're right, there is NO outside cooking without a cigar lol. They also make for a good emergency reamer, except when Cajun Butter notes are found in a good Padron bwaahaahaahaahaa.

AK47 It is awesome! It's a soft flame torch. Great for slow toasting and the build quality is fantastic.
