The X cut

Tried something new last night and was very pleased. Got a 5er of 10 Boli CJ, they were plenty strong. The sender suggested using an X cut on the cigar. Take an exacto knife, or something razor shrp, and just cut an X in the head of the cigar. Much smoother that way, he says. He was right and I was surprised how well it smoked. Perfect burn and draw.
Anybody else use this technique? I'll be trying it on other "strong" cigars. What's the worst that can happen, gotta clip it after I start smoking? No big deal
