he bit it huh? did he do it with an attitude? hmmmm, I don't know why but that kind of "erks" me. To each his own I guess. But if he did do it with an attitude, then he should get over himself. haha!

I've heard of people doing it before and have done it myself when no cutter was available....but I prefer the cutter if available ...

I've seen a lot of people do a lot of odd things, Whatever makes him enjoy his smoke is fine with me. Pinch it, lick it, bite it, sniff it, Hey wait, that sounds pretty good to me.

I used a Ka-Bar for a while. It actually worked very well, just barely shave off the tip of the cap. I also had a section chief a long time ago that used to bite the ends off his cigars and chew it while he smoked the rest of the cigar. Of course, I don't know exactly what cigars they were, but I imagine they were along the lines of Titan or Phillies.

I have a good friend in Chicago that licks the entire cigar before he smokes it. He says it keeps the cigar from drying out whist smoking it. I have another friend that chews on the cigar while he's smoke. Says it gives him more flavor. He also dips alot too... However, I only thought bad@$$ hero's in movies bit the ends of their cigars off though.

Perhaps he's a homosexual who suffers from severe bi-polarism and gravitates very quickly between sensual and malicious moods. Could have been his way of coming on to you.

People have done worse things to cigars....look at Bill Clinton and his heinous treatment of a cigar...I heard he tried it with Hillary, but her balls kept getting in the way...

Now that would be a little different! But alas, I don't think that was his motive. He was an ex-marine from Vietnam. I suppose he just didn't like wasting time with a cutte....and that's probably how he is "cut" his cigars his whole life.

I've heard of folks biting cigars but never done it my self. As for the licking seems like that would promote some burn issues but who knows.

It's a knife that is issued to the Marines and Navy personnel. Ka-Bar is the company name. Here's a link to the wiki on it.

A friends father licks the whole cigar before he lights it. It may have to do with making sure that it is not dry enough so that the cigar unwraps itself. I have bitten the cap if I didn't have a cutter, knife, punch, etc... However I prefer to just pinch off part of the cap at that point. I hate having bits of tobacco in my mouth.

He probably started out smoking White Owls or whatever back in the day when they were dry as heck right out of the box.

We had to do this at my bachelor party because no one brought a cutter. Of the 20 people there you would think ONE person would have some sort of cutting tool but nope.

OK.... Vietnam Marine.... well this makes sense now. Probably saw John Wayne do it in the movies and has done it ever sense.

Sounds like the kind of guy who can "suck a golfball through a garden hose"

no need to bite a cigar in my opinion, but as for licking... yes there is. I have even heard of people running the cigar under the sink in very dry climates, without gettingt the foot wet that is. the wrapper is oily enough to not get saturated.

I saw that Winston Churchill poked holes in the head with his matches to smoke them. I tried this yesterday w a boxed press 5 Vegas A. It didnt turn out too well. Im sure it would work better with non box pressed sticks.
