Punch, guilloine, V cut or other

[TreySC]

I voted guillotine, but I've used a v-cut a few times and have been wanting to get one.

I received a guillotine cutter as a gift from my wife, so I use it.
Not having ever used anything else besides a razor blade, I am not sure if it is the best method.

It's all about personal preference.

I like a V-cut but I haven't grabbed for anything but the CC perfect cutter since it was gifted to me. Just had no reason to.

I have yet to find anything better than my CC Perfect Cutter guillotine.

I tried a friend's V-cutter and don't care for the way it feels in my mouth.

I tried and have no objections to a punch, but don't wish to carry multiple cutters for different vitolas, so it's a Perfect Cutter for me.

I would recommend getting a cheapo plastic one to see if you like it. Then get the Xikar. It works great and you can't beat a lifetime warranty. I got mine on cbid for $34.

I use my v-cutter whenever I can. I have a bad habit of cutting too much of the cap off. The v-cut takes away my uncertainty. Stuff too small I try to punch. And torpedo's get the Dickman treatment.

I vote for the V-cut. HAd the Xikar cutter, but lost it in the recent move. Using guillotine for now, but will replace the v-cutter.

I normally use my calibri cutter,but I have a cheapie punch hanging on my key ring.I've had to resort to a box knife and now I keep my backup handy.

I prefer a guillotine cut most of the time. But I am not against a punch cut and if I don't feel like carrying a cutter I will bum my friends v cut. I like to do a double cut with the v cut making an x. The single groove does not do it for me, but two is doable.

I voted for the V-Cut. There are advantages and preferences for all types, but with the v-cut, I never get the tar build up that I sometimes do with the punch. And more importantly, with my Xikar v-cut, I can still make a perfect cut after my third scotch!

[HIM]

I punch about anything (including some perfectos and torpedos)

I can see where it would work with some perfectos but how do you punch a torpedo?
