Arturo Fuente cutters are high-quality works of art, each with a serial number corresponding to the lighter’s place in the limited production run. In past years, only 500 of each style have been made, making Arturo Fuente cutters as rare as the cigar blends they honor (typically a special edition OpusX).
As the Fuente family is busy overseeing tobacco farming and cigar making of their world-class products, they needed to find a suitable partner to make these cutters. They found a manufacturer who is more than up to the task in Prometheus. Prometheus has created a number of premium cutters that are among the most attractive on the market.
Arturo Fuente cutters generally use the Prometheus “Cutter H” design, so named due to the appearance of the cutter when the blades are expanded, creating a shape like a letter H. This blade release is accomplished easily by pressing a button found on the top of each cutter.
The cutters themselves feature a double-blade stainless steel design. These blades have press handles on each side of the cutter so that nipping the tip of your cigar is easy with a simple squeeze. After cleaning, the blades can then be locked back inside the cutter and secured. Arturo Fuente cutters are able to handle cigars up to a ring gauge of about 60.
While production of Arturo Fuente cutters is limited, each is often available in at least one style variation. These variations usually use a striking and clean finish such as black lacquer, gunmetal, and chrome – each chosen to fit an aesthetic of perfection.
Think we’re overhyping it? After decades of selling out their entire supply, one season to the next, Arturo Fuente takes OpusX seriously, and only the best will do if it’s going to bear the name.
Arturo Fuente cutters also often come with gorgeous protective leather cases. These are handmade and stitched by Spanish leather artisans and feature fine soft leather inside to avoid any damage to the face of your new cutter if you’re going to toss it in a drawer or glove box.
The Arturo Fuente company is known for having high standards, and each special edition Prometheus cutter H made to accompany the annual Fuente Aged Selection release meets those standards and then some. Even if you’re not able to score a box of special edition Fuentes, these cutters make a handsome way to clip whatever cigars you’re smoking.
