There are only two types of cigar smokers: those who have had a plugged cigar, and those who are gonna have one. This past year, we did a review on Henry’s Cigar Draw Correction Tools, which allow one to cut through a plug as quickly as a chain saw cuts through a loaf of bread.

What I especially like about these tools is that they are simple; you don’t need a degree in engineering to use them, and they allow for the maximum flexibility in creating multiple draw holes in larger ring gauge cigars. The tools require some practice to master, but once that’s done you are ready to save some bucks by opening up those constipated sticks.

The new big brother to the original Henry’s Draw Correction Tools, the Signature Series, sport handles with your signature in gold or silver leaf. The Signatures require about a week from start-to-finish. First, the signature graphic is created and “metalized.” This is a proprietary process that gets the desired signature onto the tool handles. The metalized signatures are applied to the tool handles, cured, and then are sealed with protective topcoats.

The Signature Series tools retail for $23.50 (shipping included) and soon there will be an option for a leatherette hard-shell case (YES!), which will include Henry’s Cigar Tools and a new “Nubber” Tool.

Buy a set of Henry’s Classic Tools, they are a no-brainer and will save you some cash on lost cigars. Or, to increase the “Pod Factor,” get some of the new Signature Series tools. These are like family heirlooms that can be passed down through generations.
