Default Re: Shuriken Cutter: First Impressions

If someone sent me one to try, I would give it a shot and send it back....but I have plenty of good cutters so0 that I don't want or need to spend money on another.

lol maybe i'm misunderstanding what you're saying. you'd try it and send it back even if you liked it?

i can respect people sticking with that they already have in terms of purchases. like i said, getting the newest thing isn't what everyone's into.

yeah, i couldn't agree more. i mean, i bought it without trying it but only because i heard recommendations from some people whose opinions i've learned i can trust (and because i'm an accessory slut). i don't think i'd recommend to anyone to buy one of these without trying it first.

i'm just not sure if i'll ever use another cutter unless it's for a cigar that this won't really work on or if i get a cigar that's plugged. this cutter would be virtually useless on something that's plugged, for obvious reasons.

They should hire you to help them market it, as you seem to be very satisfied.

I think what Tom is saying is that if someone were to loan him one of these by sending it to him that he would give it a try and ship it back to the lender. That's what I would do.

Hey Bill, I though you were into getting new accessories and passing them around. Maybe this would be a great idea for the next lighter/cutter pass you host?

Pretty much, Mario...saying that I would have to try it for myself before shelling out $20, and it would have to be an improvement over my Palios and XiKar cutters and XiKar punch before I would buy it.

oh ok. sorry, i didn't quite get you the first time. i'm pretty new to CA and the antics you all get up to here

yeah, for sure though...if it's not an improvement there's no need to replace something you already like.

If there was enough interest sometime early next year I would make it happen.

Recently I've been changing up my entire collection so it would be a while still before I'd be ready to host another pass. I would project 4-6 months and I would want to grab the most unique lighter(s) and cutter(s) to pass around.

If I were to do another though there would be ZERO NC's unless someone wants to do a 50-50 pass and they could do their takes with the NC's. But I have none.

This is entirely dependent on interest though.
