Opus X Rubusto -- Picture Review -- 50 pix

[s15driftking]

you know what? I've contemplated buying a nice expensive cutter... but i saw where that got me with my 80.00 dollar colibri lighter (i know use a ronson).

Go with what you know!

if i try a palio and like it, i'll simply buy one!

Agreed!

A picture is worth a 1000 words, but the review was well done too!

Once again well done! Beautiful pictures. Glad you enjoyed it. Opus X robusto is my favorite size.

Trust me, you can't go wrong with a palio. I used several cutters untill Conch Republican gave me a palio, never used another cutter before. And they are shaped to be a cigarholder too, no more balancing the cigar on your lighter. Works as a charm.

Thats alot of (cool) pictures. Next time can we see each exhale?

Last time I smoked one of these did it with just one ash. Only cigar ever that way. Concrete ash. It had nice flavors. It highlights the conundrum in chatting across the Light side / Dark side divide. There are NC cigars that are real good. Typically, they are more expensive though.

your wish is my command.

Its funny that you mention that. I pulled out an Ashton Maduro the other day and did a photoreview (its on here too) and i was all excited to use my new CAO cubist ashtray... but i didnt need to... every pic of the cigar is with the ash attached... and i just doused it and threw it out when i was done...

BTW, i got that Ashton to stand up straight on its ash...!

after many different cutters over the years, the best one was a cutter that looked exactly like yours... single-blade guilottine, bulky, plastic piece of junk my dad gave me - firm blade, straight, sharp cut. It got too dirty, a little rusty, so I go with the Palio, even though it still cuts amazing!
