My Family years ago was in the Cigar Business and this is my Great Grandfathers cutter from his shop a long time ago never actually cut a cigar with it but I will one of these days. Its not really sharp I will have to take care of that but if I screw it to a table top it would work wonders, very smooth and steady cut... but nearly 100 years ago the made S*%T right.

Yes! My local B&M has a big stainless that has a lever with three different cuts. A large diameter, a smaller diameter, and a V-cut. The owner said he got it back in the early nineties and can't find another one. Hasn't sharpened the blade once and still cuts like butter.

I will take a pic of it tomorrow when I go in and post it here.
