99% of the time its cut with my Palio. The other 1% is a punch.

I like to use a punch on the LFD Chisels. Punch all the way through, it's like a completely different smoke when done that way!

I only cut, I don't even know what happened to my punch cutters after I picked up a palio a few years ago.

Punch and Cut, I cant stand the V-Cut

Punch resides on the keyring (cheap punch, but I just loved the .44 mag bullet :P), it only gets used (sometimes) for the larger ring sizes.

cheap cutter for everything else (havn't gotten around to getting a palio yet)

I always use a cutter (Palio or Xikar). I do not like using a punch.

100% Palio, but I'm sure there are a hand full of punches in the junk cabinet.

For me it would be a punch for robusto/toro shaped cigars, and a cutter for the rest.

I am using the punch more and more. Still use the "V" cutter occasionally too.

Probably like tastes, I am sure I will bounce around between the two.

Pair of punches showed up today that I ordered to play with. Cut my first cigar with the Palio last night, that was nice. Been cutting so far.

I used to punch, but now i cut everytime. The key is to just take of the top cap, and see that nice divot left behind.

I have a punch, but it gets less use than my Xikar. I have punched maybee three or four smokes, but I prefer to use my Palio for everything. I would punch a chisel, but I rarley smoke them.

I'll do whatever it takes to get the cigar smoked. If I have a cutter near me, I'll use it. If not, I'll use whatever I can get my hands on. I don't normally bite the end off my cigar, but I'm not at all adverse to the idea.
I have a v cutter I've never used, and in the past I carried a lighter with a punch.
I mostly use one of my Xikars.

I have always been a cut guy, started with cheap guillotine and went to a palio of which I thought I would never stop using. However of late I have been using my pocket knife, it has now become a new ritual for me to take my time carefully cutting the cap through to the point were it just pops off but none of the filler is cut. Anal perhaps but just a little more time in enjoying my sticks.

Punch on the short fillers and a cutter on everone else.
