El Casco Cigar Cutter | Review

Brooks Whittington has reviewed plenty of unique cigar cutters, but most are form over function. The El Casco Cigar Cutter ($190) looks like a single-hole punch, but delivers one of the cleanest cuts we've ever seen from a cutter. There are still some quirks, but if you want a cutter that delivers consistent cuts, this Spanish-made cutter is one of the most unique options we've tested that actually works.

I have been using this exact cutter (all chrome) for more than 10 yrs. and about 5,000 cigars. As sharp as it was on the first day. Great review!👍

[@neilmartella1308]

Buddy, you can’t have all those bandaids on and not address them

[@PaddyP538]

Learning curve to the cutter! 😂

[@tyroneshoelaces9742]

Hey dude, what's up with a bandaide on every finger?

[@neighborhoodman323]

From the hole punch cutter!!

[@fbombtactical6901]

The result of the nasty habit of nail biting

[@jh7588]

Nasty af. And boooooooring reviews that take far too long. Interesting products though.

[@scotthuizinga]

guy used it on all his fingers. Thats the kind of commitment you love to see in youtube reviews

[@unboxedstudio636]

Why do you have Band-Aids on every finger?

[@WiIIieNelson]

LOL. This dude says he has been using this cutter for a month. And has a bandaid on every finger! Lol. Danger warning, you might cut yourself. 😂😂😂🤪🤪🤪

[@cigarsgunsandgasoline8032]

He obviously trims his nails with cigar cutters...🤣

[@wyatthansen6773]

whats with the band aids?

[@nledjnez8402]

Helps the camera from coming out of focus, I guess🤷🏻‍♂️

[@unboxedstudio636]

Looking at his other videos it appears he chews the heck out of them. I think he decided to hide the gnawed raw looking fingers.

[@t1ny7ank]

You’re holding upside down. Never had an issue using mine.

[@pim1234]

Super classy cutter !

[@TheMartinuspique]

i can tell by the band aids you tested this cutter prior making this video

[@michaelg6808]

Great Review! Any recommendations on a low-strength full flavor cigar with no pepper? Thank you

[@nicholas_x7732]

You could try the Drew Estate Undercrown Sungrown or the Shade. They're lower strength cigars that have plenty of nutty and woody notes for me in the Sungrown and more of a sweet or candy like flavor in the Shade. I don't notice much or any pepper in either of them, and I've smoked both of them quite a few times. Drew Estate has become one of my go-to brands that I always enjoy. Hopefully this turns out to be a helpful recommendation for you.

[@jamesgrabatin5520]

I'm thinking if you cut with the cutter portion to the top, you'll eliminate the movement of the cut head, no?

[@carrottoponcrak]

Yeah, it's made to cut and the tip falls out of the bottom into an ashtray. Hold it that way and it works great

[@ste45]

Kirby swears by it

[@kostverloren050]

It’s now on the same website €244.00

[@martymyers1459]

Might be a decent cutter for a lounge if the head didn't move. I'll stick to my Cuban Crafters.

[@alexcamacho4880]

Ditto 👍

[@gtrmusic69]

1:28 "...it measures 1.6 inches long..."

[@sammer2587]

Like most of these things, I wonder how in the world there is enough of a market to make these things and turn any kind of profit.

[@ianmattl]

I never thought about that. Good question. I can’t imagine many people are buying these. Best selling cutter is probably the $5 black plastic ones

[@Vanegas613]

You are using this upside down. It doesn’t tilt when done the other way.

[@Void7.4.14]

Can't say I'd be tripping over myself to buy it. It seems like all these expensive and impossible to carry cutters have some serious design flaws. I don't get it.

[@jamesgrabatin5520]

As Brooks mentioned at the start of the video, El Casco makes "desktop" items.

[@illkickyouinthenuts]

The cutter is for cutting a cigar, not your fingers.

[@shishenliart]

They changed the construction. The head doesn't move anymore. Cleanest cutting cigar cutter I've had and the desktop presence is absolutely unique and gorgeous.

[@PaddyP538]

$200 cutter for $10 cigar 😅

[@n.y.9894]

heres something thats harder to use effectively, its better

[@epipen22]

[zohl-leeng-ghehn]

[@Lol-1979]

Thats stupid thing to buy for that price and stupid thing to carry

[@johnnymetallica1039]

It’s not to carry you simpleton
