Dickman cut?

[Jwrussell]

Never heard the name, but I use a much less severe version on Torpedos. I can't see a cut like that being good on a standard cigar as it would cut through the cap. I mean that is a massive angle on that cut.

 

[issues]

I use a slant cut on torps but never on a standard cigar.

Won't be long now said the rabbi.

I've tried this a few times and know a couple guys that use it exclusively for torpedoes - doesn't really work on a straight cap cigar. I don't care for it, I feel like I've got too much cigar in my mouth and don't find the flavor any different or the smoke any cooler.

Ditto that. I heard about the "slanted cut" on dog watch cigar radio first. Been using it on my torpedos. But it does nothing to be honest. Just a gimmick. :dunno:

I'm not putting anything with the name DICK near my mouth....just saying.

Seriously... "Joe cut" couldn't work instead? :scratchhe

Side note... Buddy of mine won't even use my v-cutter. He calls it a dick cut. :nodlaugh:

I thought this was going to be about V-cuts, just because of the look of the cigar once the V has been cut.

It could have been called the Bobbitt.

i definitely cut right through the cap on the stick i tried it on, but it didn't unravel. the annoying thing, as others have mentioned, is that you end up putting a lot of the cigar in your mouth. in any case... it's a good cut to try if you want to try something different.

and... just call it an "angle cut" or maybe a "Joe D." cut.

Not that I found it makes much of a difference anyway, since I typically cut my torps way down to begin with, but I don't like having more than the tip in my mouth (that's what she said).

 

[Shmear]

Heard of it, never tried it though, I was introduced to is as "dick-cut".

Wouldn't do it, sounds too much of a mess for me.

You are making this very easy... but I'll refrain :stretchgr

 

[Slow Burn]

this one is for shawn....

This very same technique can be applied by using your thumbnail (or teeth) to gently pierce through the wrapper, in a circle, to separate the cap from the cigar. Although a cigar snob would snicker at this practice, this is the most common cutting method used by those who actually farm the leaf and make the cigars. With a little practice, you can become quite deft at doing this quickly and cleanly

It was actually meant to sound like that, hahaha, this time I did it on purpose.

 

[Alwayslit]

Interesting.........but I'll stick to the more conventional cuts.

 

[jjon90]

Did I do it right??

I kinda liked it?

 

[Greyghost]

:dunno: Only knew it as a beveled cut. :scratchhe

I know a lot of trumpet calls used for turkey hunting have a beveled end that you suck on allowing a greater vibration across your lip. But this is a cigar forum and not a turkey hunting forum, sorry.

 

[r3db4r0n]

I will make a point of attempting this in my next review

yep, that's right! mine ended up a little more drastic than yours, but i did kinda like it too. makes for a slightly different smoking experience, eh?

I'm a fan of the match stick punch. A former member here got me hooked on it. Haha, although I love the name... may have to do it just so I can tell someone it's the "dick punch"... or cut... or whatever.
