Disaster has struck

Your best bet is to try to do everything you can to stretch your funds to get a new cutter rather than risk ruining any cigars but if that isn't possible I would try slicing it with the sharpest knife I have if I were in the same situation, but would get some practice on some cheaper cigars before trying it on anything special!

good advice, I only bought that cheap one as I have only just started smoking cigars and didn't know if id like it. If I didn't ive only spent 99p. Now I know I enjoy the hobby im going to purchase the cutter mentioned above.

if you have a razer blade that will do a great job.

I placed one corner of the blade on a surface so the angle of the blade from the surface was something like 45 degrees.

Then i just rolled the cigar under the blade lowering the highest end as you go

I suppose a knife would do the same thing, but for fear of crushing it, i rolled the cigar onto the blade as opposed forcing the blade through the cigar if you see what i mean.

I think I see what you mean. Thanks for the comment

again thanks for the offer sligub but I wouldn't feel right taking a cutter when I know they cost money that someone else had to spend. Many thanks though

I've got loads of freebies that I've gathered over the years so of you change your mind let me know, most it would cost me is a stamp. The linked one above is a great cutter with a lifetime warranty

I think in January ill purchase one like this: http://www.smoke-king.co.uk/acatalog...575.html#SID=3 if that is any good? Many thanks for the kind offer but I couldn't ask you to do that. Thanks Chris

Hi all, well disaster has struck. My cigar cutter has broke it was a 99p one from China, still I expected it to last a little longer. The real bad news it I cant get another till my student loan comes in January. My question is that are there any other ways to cut a cigar?

I don't have PMs but if you Pm tippexx your address and ask him to forward it I will chuck one in the post for you.

A good craft knife or similar should do the job well if used with care. I've a couple of freebie cutters spare if you want one, Pm your postal address to me and i'll pop one in the post for you.
