Here shown in action with an Uppowoc Perfecto. Hardly a day goes by I don't use this essential cigar accoutrement.

    I filed grooves on the ridges so that I could set my cigar crosswise. That makes it easier to reach my thumb and forefinger round my stogie. I thought it an improvement on the original design. Next time I'm out there I'll snap a pic showing.

    Indeed. But our kids live in digital virtual paracosms devoid of meaningful speech, while the art of conversation once learned in the sobremesa creates a generation with increasing lethologica. ;^)

    You can see from the toasty smirch how much it's used.

    Allows you to stick your fingertips into the channel. Easier to grab a robusto or under. It ain't the spork, but it's handy. Takes a minute with a Dremel.
