    Large diameter punch for 50 RG and up. Straight cut with a standard guillotine for anything 50 RG or below. Yes, 50 can go either way.

    I prefer to punch but if it's a small stick I'll cut it.

    Never tried a V cut.

    As far as cuts go I prefer a Porterhouse. But for my butts I use a punch most of the time.

    Guillotine. Almost always.

    I only go with the punch if the cigar is bigger than I want it to be.

    Ever since I put a punch on my keychain I use it exclusively. It has three sizes of punch so there's never a problem with a cigar being too big or too small for it.
    It's not a real hobby unless it interferes with your work.

    I never had heard of or seen a V-cutter until just a few months ago. I like it. But I'm not sure if I like it because it's new and intriguing - or that I like it because it's "better". I've used nothing but a guillotine cutter for a decade and have only been dissatisfied when I used a non-sharp one. I suspect I wouldn't like a non-sharp V-cutter, either. Same thing with a punch; a non-sharp punch will annihilate a good cigar. And then you have the whole 'getting the tobacco back out of the punch-hole' thing to deal with...

    So I guess MY bottom-line would be: Whatever you use, make it a sharp one.

    I use a punch on everything I can. I also have tried the V-Cut as well and like how it works. Anything too small for a punch I just use a guillotine cut. Speaking of which; what is the consensus for the best guillotine cutter to use?

    In my opinion, Palio. Hands down.
