ok, I have never seen this before, so I thought I should post it here..
I decided to smoke a cigar that I was sent for my bday, it turned out to be plugged and burned crooked so I decide to correct it by cutting a part of it off and relighting it...
I cut it and feel my cutter hitting something hard, I open the cigar up and a stone falls out...
the pics:

messed my cutter up pretty bad unfortunately, but I have a backup, this really fits the rest of my day/week/month perfectly

I have heard of stones in cigars but no one that large.

Wow! How could that not have been put there on purpose! Do you think it was just a gag from the roller? Maybe pissed off that day?

How does that not pass some sort of quality control inspection? That is a pretty big rock in there..

Unfortunately we'll never know much about the origins, since if that was the yellow-cello "mystery stick" I sent, it was from one of a number of estate buys and did not come with a box. They're in the category of "this is a cool old cigar from whoknowswhen, let's smoke it and see if it's any good", so I pass them out at herfs for sh*ts and giggles. I've never come across anything like that in one of those. Or in any cigar actually.
:-)
I feel awful about this. What cutter did you break?

I have no idea, but I hope to never encounter something like this again, this can mess up your day (and your swiss army knife cutter)

Don't feel bad about it, you could not have known, besides, its still tasty (yes I lit it after all this)
it actually took a chunk out of my swiss army knife.

Tainth, Smokey actually used his diamond encrusted platinum Dunhill cutter for this stick...and is shattered in a million pieces!

That would suck, since I'm looking for a merchant local to him to see about a replacement.

No, there is no need to replace anything, you know I have more then one cutter, besides, according to wanger you are not the only one looking to replace it
:-)
You couldn't have known and I am gratefull for a chance to try these old cigars, that I would otherwise never have access to.
Besides, I tried smoking rock now and know its not for me
