Shuriken Cutter Makeshift Review

I have since tried three more cigars with the Shuriken cutter. So far I noticed that this citter works extremely well with smaller RG and when not using sticks that are already known to tar up. I have also noticed that I don't have to place the smaller RG sticks as far into my mouth to open the draw up.

I'll be sure to report back more at a later time.

a) Cain Daytona corona. This one smoked VERY well with zero tar buildup and copious amounts of smoke. It worked like a charm.

b) Gran Habano Reserva (double corona?). This one smoked, but was mostly a fail. It took too much work to continuously clean the tar buildup. Other than that it smoked very well. That didn't matter when I had to wipe it every third draw. However, as long as I wiped it I got no tar in my mouth.

c) OR Viaje Exclusivo robusto. This one smoked like a charm the whole way down. I decided to try the cutter here because I thought it would be nice to smoke a cigar without lopping off the purdy pigtail for once. The experiment was a success and my precious little Excl. robo smoked down to a nub, pigtail in tact.

I also smoked a Berger and Argenti torpedo at one point to see how a torp would fare. I don't recall where in the time span it fell. After the first cut I didn't like the draw, so I rotated the head 180 degrees and cut it again. It worked out fine, but was just an unremarkable cigar.
