I am down for a Spyderco cigar cutter.
Perhaps scissors?
What steel would be best? VG10? Maxamet? Magna Cut? ZDP-189?
Butterfly?

Re: Serrated cigar cutter
I like the benchmade one, but it's double blade or scissors for me
Can't believe companies have gotten away with **** steel in a fancy package for what they charge for so long

Re: Serrated cigar cutter
I've used my military as a cigar cutter quite a few times. Just place the cigar here and close the knife.
I don't have cigars on hand so it's the best I can do.
Alternatively I've also just held the knife in one hand and rotated the cigar with the other. You can easily V cut a cigar too with a knife. Although that cut isn't used as much now.

Isn't the Jumpmaster recommended for that use??

Re: Serrated cigar cutter
Hey wasn't that older Spyderco "D'Alton Toad" model meant to be a cigar cutter? I had heard that said before anyway.
I'm not into tobacco products so I really wouldn't know what would make an ideal cigar cutter?

Re: Serrated cigar cutter
Interesting idea. That said I'm generally not in favor any special project that focuses production efforts away from production models or other interesting new knives (yes, I know what's "interesting" is entirely subjective, but I don't feel that a cigar cutter is going to appeal to the broader range of Spyderco customers). I also feel like the cost of this would end up being prohibitive.. I don't see it being a big seller for Spyderco. Then again, I smoke like one cigar per decade at this point, so what do I know haha..

Re: Serrated cigar cutter
Perhaps a single bevel chisel ground ladybug size knife with steel liners, one side being premium steel, could use this “feature” to be a take anywhere knife that can cut cigars with the best of them. A two finger grip knife with two finger choils seems like it would work. a hawk bill or straight edge wharnie?

Re: Serrated cigar cutter
I would love to somehow see Spyderco incorporate the the Spyder-hole into the cutting design but I can’t think how.

Re: Serrated cigar cutter
My PM2 just cut two Ghurkas tonight...never misses a beat! The only other knives that have worked that well for me are my Opinels and my Vic Classic.
