Punch or Cut?

I agree totally so I just punch it multiple times, basically to the same area as I'd do with cutting, just with a punch for the neater edges.
This is it with only the one punch in it

And this is it punched a few more times. I just start from the middle and work outwards nibbling away with the cutting edge of the punch from the centre outwards.


Having the shoulders still on makes it feel a load nicer when it's on my lips taking a draw.
