i guess it all depends on where the blockage is...or if the draw is tight because of the overall roll of the cigar. the one time i used the poker on my pipe tool (which is max. 3 inches long) it did improve the draw.

the drill bit is an interesting idea.

I only just recently started using a punch that I bought in my Colibri triple torch lighter. It's great. Sharp exact and clean...

That is what mine looks like too. It's a Colibri, but not the same model.

I believe this is what Michael is referring to by punching the side of the chisel:

Some prefer to punch both sides so the holes line up and you end up with an open hole through the cigar, some only punch one side. It's all personal preferences.
