Who Needs a Cutter when Ya Have a Toothpick??

The first time I started smoking cigars (back in '96) we didn't actually cut the cigars, we "punched" them using an icepick. Yeah. Icepick. Not all the way through, mind you, but maybe about a half-an-inch in. It gave the draw we were looking for at the time so that's what we did. Sounds like the guy with the "toothpick" was doing something similar.

What this reminds me of was of the time when smoking one of the Clear Havanas that was pre-punched. It had a small hole that you'd draw through, just like what I use to get with the ice pick.

Full circle, perhaps?
