Have you tried a v cut yet? Sort of a hybrid between the punch and full cut. I like them.

Always an option is to find someone into firearms and sharpen a piece of spent brass to use as a punch. Options would be .223, .243, .270, or .308/30-06. Anyone who shoots should have something laying around.

Very easy to sharpen. Just wrap a tapered punch or something like that in sandpaper and spin it around the inside of the neck a few times. If you have a reamer, it works even better, with just a few spins inside.

The cutter takes a nice wedge out of the cap of the cigar. The opening created is larger than the hole of a punch but still much smaller than a full cut. I like to use them on large ring cigars and those with notoriously loose draws. But really, they work well on any cigar that's not too small or pointed. I also like the fact that it keeps the rounded shape on the cap intact which, to me anyway, is a nice mouth feel. I can send you a few if you'd like. PM me if interested.

So what is the big deal with the Fuente Opus X? I have seen them referenced on here a few times and I checked them out on a few sites and they are super expensive. What is it that makes them so expensive and are they really that good?

They are somewhat rare, certain stores get them more frequently then others. Some on here will say they are over rated and not worth the coin. I am lucky enough to live in an area where I see them all the time and Holt's has them and Anejo sharks at Fuente Mania for a VERY decent price point (a lot of places jack the prices up). I love Opus it is one of the few non-Cubans I smoke, their smaller ring gauge smokes being my favorites especially their Petite Coronas! But that is my personal opinion and everyone is entitled theirs, if you find one for $15 or less I say buy it and try it for yourself, otherwise regardless of the size you are overpaying!! (Oh and they get better and better with age)

Patience with an Opus X is rewarded. If you can, buy one and let it rest for a few years.

Thanks guys i will keep that in mind. Im not sure if i am ready for that kind of commitment just yet but maybe in the future. So far the most expensive cigars i have gotten are the Macanudo Vintage 2006. I got a fiver from the devil site for 25. I plan to smoke them at the end of the school year to celebrate with some friends before Vicarage (it is a one year internship so we will be apart for a year before we come back for our final year of seminary).

I'm lutheran so we are called pastors. Roman Catholics are the only ones who call their ministers priests. I can explain why that is if you would like but it would probably be best to just PM you.

haha yeah fair enough. We get confused for priests a lot since we still wear clerical collars, but since we are Lutheran we can get married which confuses people when I am with my fiancé wearing one.

Mike you PM'ed me by accident, Michael seems like Mike is interested, or he just wanted to ask me about the Lutheran faith...and I doubt that.
