Accessory Discussion / Reviews>Cuban Crafters Cutter
TheRuckus13 12:09 AM 09-07-2010
Howdy everyone,

I just recently ordered a Cuban Crafters Euro cutter sort of blind. It's the slim credit card cutter basically, and I'm wondering something before they ship it. I think I made the mistake of assuming that all CC cutters have the nifty piece that stops you from cutting the cigar too far, the hole in it, whatever it's proper term is. Does the Euro have this feature? Also I don't see any reviews for it, anyone ever chop a few cigars with it? :-)

The piece that stops the cigar from getting cut too far is only found on a "Perfect" or "dummy" cutter.

So, i'm thinking unless it specifically says that, it's just a standard guillotine cutter.

Ugh, I am in a world of messing up. 20 dollars worth of shipping back and forth on a 15 dollar cutter anyone? My fault for assuming.

I wish I could unfortunately I can't afford to. I know the perfect cutters are for me, and I can't afford to buy that on top of this cutter. :-)

I sent a message to Cuban Crafters hoping that they aren't shipping tomorrow due to the time off on holidays, and they see it and give me a call before they ship it.

Not true, one Palio will last a lifetime. That is of course until you decide you want a different finish or one for home and one for car. :-):-)

At worst case, if you want the "dummy" effect for most cigars, put it on a table, put the cigar's head in it vertically and cut.. if the cutter is too slim, do it twice

I used this method as well. Works great and it's hard to screw up. Try it.

If the Palio's truly lasted a lifetime, there would be no need for the lifetime warranty... Not hating, just saying...

I think Bob just meant you'd never have to PAY for another cutter. :-)

Here's a bit of an update for you folks wondering about Cuban Crafters customer service. I gave them a phone call and informed them of the situation, and they didn't even flinch. I was on the phone for five minutes and my order was changed, and I now have the cutter I want on it's way. :-)

Thanks for the update. It's nice to able to separate the few good vendors from the crowd. Those guys sound alright.

Take this with a grain of salt but if you cannot afford to have two cutters, you'll be in for a real shock when you start moving into the high end cigars. And you will eventually move there if you haven't started messing in that area.:-)
