I do this as well and find that I get a very nice draw and don't encounter any problems.

This is all good info. I'll have to look into a v cutter, although with this particular cigar it may not be a good option. It is the sharpest point I have ever seen on a torpedo, so I'm not sure a v cut would open it up enough. I appreciate all the feedback and will keep my cutter handy next time I smoke another one.

Perhaps a flat cut for about ¼", then a V-cut. BTW, I like the Legends Reds too. Loves me some Perdomos...
