You aren't kidding. My cigar lounge buddies and I all carry. :assaultri

Lots of times, the blades aren't really dull, they are just gunked up. You should periodically clean the cutting edges with a Q-tip dipped in rubbing alcohol. Even a cheapo cutter, if it is decent to start with, can last for years, if it is cleaned regularly.

Fuentes. Try the various sizes of the Château Series in Maduro, as well as a maduro 8–5–8. Also try a Rocky Patel Edge Sumatra.

Just in case you haven't gotten the message yet, spring for a Palio. You won't regret it.

+1!! Also Sauza Comemorativo.

Which wrapper? I love these things in the maduro. :applause:

I sprang for the shnoop deal. This is my second X-tend (my first one is the full size version). They are definitely worth the money IMO (to answer Aloha Style) and are the only lighters I have ever had that always light on the first click. As to the color, it's a matter of taste, and I happen...

You're killing me! I nearly sprayed my monitor and keyboard with ginger ale when I read this.

Nature abhors a vacuum. :cbig:

Shotguns have one feature that hasn't been mentioned: the distinctive sound of the pump action being racked. That, by itself, might help deter all but the most determined BG. :gangfire:

Yup, what he said.

You might try the beads from Heartfelt Industries and watch their color. They turn from white to clear when they are saturated. When that happens, take them out and dry them as described by Skitalets. However, use a very low speed on the hair dryer and keep it at a distance, unless your beads...

Shnoop promptly changed its billing procedures in response to that situation. My card got compromised, but the cc co. fixed that. I have bought stuff from Shnoop a couple of times since then, and have had no further cc problems.

I'm sorry that I didn't see this thread until now, when you are back. For future (and others') visits, MHO is that the best restaurant in NOLA is the Pelican Club in the Quarter. It's on Exchange Alley, a small street that runs between and parallel to Royal and Chartres around the corner from...

If you're interested in the LC9, I believe that the Kel-Tec PF9 is quite similar but gets better reviews. IIRC, there is a side-by-side comparsion/shoot-out somewhere on YouTube.

Newbies, remember that possessing Cuban cigars by US citizens is illegal, even if you are in a country where Cuban cigars are imported and perfectly legal (now there is a prime example of making intelligent and enforceable regulations :hysterica)

Palio and Xikar both have exemplary warranties and customer service. I have and use cutters from both, plus a bunch of Xikar lighters. You can use either brand's products with complete confidence and just choose whichever you prefer.

Ahhh, I see. I usually don't smoke anything that small. But maybe I'll start... :halfgrinw

Can you give me some examples? Enquiring minds want to know.. :smokingbo

Well, I guess that answers the age-old question: Size DOES matter. :hysterica Congrats on the sweet pick-up.
