Cello on or off? BUT this is Cutting the stick
 

I read an info email from cheaphumidors.com
I think it came from there.
The blurb casually mentioned cutting the cigar with the cello on and then removing it for lighting.

I've been smoking for a goodly many years and never thought to cut with the cello on.

I, at first, scoffed at this method. I figured that I knew everything there is to know about getting the cigar ready for cutting.

HAH!!!!

I now ALWAYS cut my stick with the cello on and then just slide it out and light it up.

Some of you who read this will say...."OF COURSE THAT"S HOW YOU CUT A STICK"

I've never seen it cut in the cello.
I really like this method

Do others cut the stick with the cello on?

OR

are you like me who unflapped the cello the manuevered the stick out to cut it?????

C'mon...fess up...

I get a much cleaner cut if I cut the stick with the cello on. Started doing this a couple of years ago when I read about it on Club Stogie.

...I've never even heard of such a thing. I always removed the stick from the cello, and now I'm gonna have to try it the other way. Interesting.

It never occurred to me to cut with the cello on. I'll give it a shot.

hehe - Both, just depends on the RG size of the stick.

:r That made me laugh.

Re: Cello on or off? BUT this is Cutting the stick
 

I've never heard of this before. What is the reasoning behind leaving the cello on?

For better cutting, did you even read the first post? ;)

Re: Cello on or off? BUT this is Cutting the stick
 

What I read some time back is that it keeps your cutter cleaner and you will therefore get better cuts.

I would think this would dull the blade(s) quicker. Having to cut through cello and cigar, instead of just cigar.

took the words right out of my trap!

Re: Cello on or off? BUT this is Cutting the stick
 

I’ve never tried cutting with the cello on, but cutting with it off works great for me.

Re: Cello on or off? BUT this is Cutting the stick
 

I believe that you just place it over the tip and un-roll gently until the entire stick is covered.:hm

So how do you cut cigars in the aluminum tubes? Wouldn't that ruin your cutter?

Re: Cello on or off? BUT this is Cutting the stick
 

Never heard or seen anyone cut a cigar using this method. Might have to give it a try.
