Perfect cutter binding

LiquidChaos66

So this just started happening over the last 5-8 cigars I've had... One side of my perfect cutters blades binds and won't close all the way... And in process jacks up my cigar. I've made sure that there is no odd bending or pushing in at a slant to avoid this. I cleaned them and made sure there was nothing cloggin pure tracks. But last night I had a guys night and I supplied the cigars and it chewed up 3 rather not so cheap DPGs. Any advice? I would rather not have to buy new cutters (but won't really mind having to do so lol)...

I've had three measured or similar perfect cutters. They all bind up with tiny bits of tobacco that can't get out. After switching to a double blade no back haven't had the problem sense.

I dot think I can return it. It was a gifty from a BOTL here on CCOM so I have no paperwork on it and have no clue how old it is. It's been a killer reliable cutter until the last few weeks. I'll look into the Xikars today

I have one and haven't had any problems with it, but I do know that Cuban Crafters has a lifetime warranty on them. I'm sure if you contact the company they will help you out.

Buy a punch cutter. Can't go wrong with Xikar.

Haven't been much of a fan of the punch. I may have to give it a few more tries but I haven't been sold on it.

Haven't had any trouble with mine yet but it is starting to get dull. My cuts are starting to come out rounded instead of nice and sharp. But I only paid 5$ for it on eBay two years ago so that's not bad.

I have 3 Cuban Perfect Cutters and yes...like a lot of cutters they tend to get "crudded up" with bits of tobacco and I usually clean mine every month with a cotton swab and vodka...seems to do the trick with the cleaning and I just take a sip for myself in the process. The nice thing about the Perfect Cutter is that it's a branded name....call them and I'm sure they will take yours back and give you a new one...last time I checked they are warrantied for life. Doesn't matter if you don't have the paperwork.....or it was gifted to you...it's in your possession and that's all that matters.

Soooooo.... In process if trying to unjam the cutter I accidentally pulled on of the blades out.... And a crap ton if stuff came out with it! Lol I got it put back together and it's running perfect now!
