Drilled cigar cutters are more suitable for beginners, because the opening of this kind of cigar cutters is relatively small, which is suitable for beginners who do not require such a large inhalation volume. There will also be no unsuccessful cutting, which will damage and scatter the outer wrapping layer of the cigar.
How to use: The cigar and the drilled cigar cutter are in a parallel state, and the knife edge is aligned with the center of the cap and rotated left and right. The filler, which affects the effect of cigar smoking) is pulled out after turning to a certain depth, and the filler cap will fall off by itself. However, since the drilled cigar cutter generally turns out a relatively small hole, if you want a larger inhalation volume, you can take the center of the cap as the center, turn one on the top, and turn one or two on the cross.

For cigar beginners, it is easy to scratch the cigar with poor hand strength, or cut off the entire head to affect the taste. The handle-type cigar cutter has a wide range of uses, and it is also the cigar cutting tool that we can most easily imagine how to use. Its shape is similar to the scissors we often use. Its advantage is that it can cut cigars of any size. However, due to its relatively large size, it is suitable for home or office, but not suitable for carrying around.
