This came up concerning cigars recently at my house. My friends girlfriends brothers friend told her "never use a lighter on a cigar, only wooden matches". I asked her what kind of cigars he smokes. "good ones, come in a yellow box, grenaders or something like that"
1+ Frank might be using the torch but he warns us not to hold it too long. I would avoid it at all costs. I personally prefer a soft flame on my cigars too but with the briar or a meer. it is just too risky.
Seriously, though, that's why I referred to the Frank video, how to avoid those things. Also, that's why I started the pipe tips for cigar guys thread. I bought my first pipe, and smoked my first cigars, in 1971. After 40+ years, you forget what folks don't know. You're absolutely right, extreme caution must be used if you're going to use a torch with your pipe, which I'll be doing in about 30 minutes here, once the coffee kicks in.
Lolol! AyC Grenadiers are what got me into cigars!
