Dupont Slim cigar cutter in black lacquer and chrome\u003c\/strong\u003e is a guillotine seven millimetres thick with a 23 mm aperture — a 58 ring gauge — and a 2.7 mm cutting depth set by the mechanism rather than by your eye. The maison catalogues it as the Cigar Stand Slim, because the same object doubles as a rest for the cigar between draws. It is the cutter for counsel who want the cut decided in advance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe depth is the detail that matters. Most bad cuts go below the cap's shoulder, and the wrapper unravels; this cutter takes 2.7 mm and no more, so the decision is made before the blade moves. Pull the guilloché crown to open the blade, push to cut. The face is black lacquer framed in chrome with the signature bar across it — 2.4 by 1.6 inches, 2.1 ounces, flat enough to ride in a cigar case.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe maison's own description is the whole specification: \"23 mm diameter and 2.7 mm cutting depth.\" Twenty-three millimetres is a 58 ring gauge, which covers everything short of a gordo.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e S.T.

Dupont began where we did. Simon Tissot-Dupont opened a Paris workshop in 1872 making document cases, briefcases, and travel trunks for diplomats and businessmen — objects whose quality lived in hinges, locks, frames, and fittings. The lighter, four decades on, was the same discipline applied to a smaller object. The workshop has been at Faverges in the Haute-Savoie since 1924, took in its first master lacquerer in 1935, and holds the French state's Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant designation for living heritage craft. We sell leather cases for a living. So did they, first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003csmall\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty.\u003c\/strong\u003e This Product carries S.T.
