Collection: Guillotine Cutters

A cigar cutter is a tool used to trim the end of a cigar before smoking it. Trimming the cigar ensures good airflow and a pleasant smoking experience.

For beginners, a simple guillotine cutter is often recommended. These are easy to use and provide a clean cut for most types of cigars.

1. Choose the right cutter : Select the cutter you want to use (guillotine, V-cut, punch, or scissors).
2. Insert the cigar : Hold the cigar firmly and place the end (the cap) into the cutter.
3. Determine the cutting point : Cut about 2-3 millimeters off the cigar head. If you're using a guillotine cutter, make sure you cut just above the shoulder of the cigar.
4. Cut quickly and firmly : Make a quick and firm cut to ensure a clean cut.

The price of a cigar cutter varies considerably depending on the type, brand, and material. Here are some price ranges:

• Basic guillotine cutters : €5 - €20
• V-cut cutters : €15 - €50
• Punch cutters : €10 - €40
• Scissors clippers : €20 - €100
• Luxury and table top cutters : €50 - €200 or more
