low budget? Primeros is probably your best bet to buy in bulk....and for a travel humi for many cigars you might look at a desktop humidor...or the cigar jar as cigar.com sells them...I have one that is metal...might need to check and see to make sure it isnt glass.......you might want to check customs in the countries you are traveling to see 'if' or how many 'personal' use cigars you are allowed to bring with you
As far as the cutter goes, if you chew the end of your cigar might want to go with a punch. I chew and find that you get less pieces of cigar in your mouth with a punch. Make sure you get a big punch so you can draw good amounts of smoke. I usually just use my fingernails to "punch" the tip out for a perfect sized chew friendly smoking hole.
i havent read all the posts on this so im sure there are people that suggested exactly what i am about to sugest.
as far as a huge travel humidor: use a cooler, just make sure it seals well.
as far as a humidor: on some level you get what you pay for but not really. Ive never paid more that 50 or so for a humidor. mine work fine. ( i have 3 humidors 25ct a 50ct and a 100ct) there are many sites out there that can get you what you want. the expensive ones ($100+ for a 25ct) are good in a way. they are solid wood and are very high quality. they look great. ... but they still only store your cigar. they do the same thing at three to four times the cost.
cutters: I use a punch on every cigar that i can. if its too small i use a double guillotine. If its a torp again witht he double guillotine.
If your looking for a decent humidor at a decent price, look at the Cuban Crafters website. I own one and am pretty happy with it. As for cutters, its all personal preference but I either use a V cutter or a punch.

this one also comes down to personal taste.
