And I'm a sucker right along with everyone else. I bought a Lotus torch lighter for my cigars.

True. My teeth aren't sharp enough to get a clean bite most of the time but I'm no stranger to biting one off when I forget my cutter. My regular straight cutter only sees action for slicing ropes and I grabbed a uber cheap v cutter from Amazon that I use often. Most of the expense of cigars is trying to buy shit that will impress your friends and interweb dwellers

My daughter gave me a torch lighter. It’s never been charged with butane. I usually have a pocket knife and either a Zippo or a Bic. I think I can muddle thru. Lol. “Endeavor to persevere”- Lone Watie (Chief Dan George) from the Outlaw Josey Wales.

A cheap cutter that works is good to have.
