Chisel Tips

scarlin · 2012 25

When pinching, do you pinch the top and bottom or the sides to open it up?

Sides.

Great question. I've actually always wondered this myself although I have yet to have anything with a chisel tip.

Think that was one of the first questions I asked when I joined up. I had cut my first one

Kinda like opening up peanuts.

I squeeze the sides.

This is good to know. I just bought my first chisel tip today, an LFD double ligero. I might have also thrown one in a bomb that is going out tomorrow...

And with this thread, I've learned something new today. Glad you brought up this question, scarlin.
I only have 1 chisel tip in my humi and I've never smoked one before. So I've been wondering what I should do when I decide to smoke it....and now I know.

Sometimes depending on how it opens up I will cut it after opening it anyway. Squeezing the sides will open it, but sometimes I still don't like the draw so I will tip it as well.

You mean after you squeeze it open you cut a little off the tip (if the draw is too tight)? I have one Chisel tip and thinking baout smoking it this weekend. Never had one before.

Punch the top flat.

Yes, that is exactly what I do. If it doesn't need it I won't and sometimes in doesn't need it until I am part way thru the stick.

I haven't tried this way Doc. Does it "feel" different in the way it delivers the draw?

Great! Thanks for the info.
