I'm starting a new thread about this device because it was buried in an intro thread made by it's inventor.
It's called PerfecDraw...it's one of those long nail-like things you use to unplug a cigar. I've had it for a little over a month now and I must say it's the first of it's kind that actually works for me. The difference is it has tiny little barbs on the tip of the shaft that removes a small amount of tobacco on withdrawal. The first time I used it was on a Por Larranaga Montecarlo and I was sold. As BBS would say about a plugged cigar, "it's a tent peg". That one was. I twisted it in and pulled it straight out and it was totally smokeable. Truth is, I'm using it more than I would have thought...even when I smoke a cigar that has a little tight draw, the kind we put up with the whole time we smoke it...I pull this out and free the leaf up a bit until it draws nicely.
It's well made and feels solid in your hand. It's a bit pricey, but when you figure how many cigars it saves, we'll re-coop that money in no time. If I had one bitch about it, that would be that it's a little short...meaning, you have to go in from both ends on a completely tight rolled stick (versus a cigar with just a hard spot) on a churchill or lancero length.
All in all, it's a great new toy that works.
PS: I used a code...Katman...and got 15% off. They ship like lightning too.
PPS: I also started this new thread because the other one had a bunch of comments from Danny that almost made me cry. He was so smart...and interesting. But most of all, he was so kind. A true gentle soul. Damn f'in cancer....
