I'm interested in buying some sort of leather case to hold two or three cigars. Any suggestions on where I should look? Should I just go To my b&m or can anyone suggest a good/inexpensive retailer?
Wow! They are great deals! I was thinking something I can put in my suit jacket and take along to the office, but, these look like some values that might be too good to pass up. Especially for a newbie, like me.
The herfador deals are indeed great. I find myself using mine more and more often. Of course, you can't stick in in your suit pocket, but it does fit in a briefcase. I used it recently on a trip down south and it worked like a charm and all my sticks were in great shape when we got there.
If a single stick will do you, than try this out. I made it a couple of years ago, and it is still going strong. Basically it is simply a PVC tube capped at both ends. This enables me to put a single stick in my firepack and still have a very viable smoke no matter where the fire takes me.
I currently have two leather holders and a xikar travel humi. I use them for different reasons. I use one leather holder that has the three fingers mostly for the golf course since it has a 2 pouches on it (one for the lighter and the other for the credit card cutter it came with). The other is your normal brown leather one that I got on clearance from my old B&M in Kansas. I use that if I am taking a couple sticks for me and maybe a Blondie for my girl somewhere. The travel humi (10ct) is perfect for everything else...at the beech, long road trip, larger golf group, or if I cant decide what I want to smoke on a particular night I will put a bunch in there so I can decide later or smoke em all!!!
Where did you buy the case with the 'on board' lighter and cutter?
http://www.groomstand.com/personalized-triple-cigar-holder-with-lighter-and-cutter-in-tan....I probably would of never purchased this because of how pricey it is ( i got my other 3 holder for 19 bucks) but it is very nice. Only problem with the one that I have is that the ligher is just a regular old lighter...but you can find some that have a nice small torch flame. the cutter is perfect though...sometimes if I am traveling with torps or perfectos I just slip it into my wallet.

Any one of those is a great deal.
