Good Cheap punch?

I know the question is a conflicting one in itself.
I know someone out there has found a good cheap punch.
Where is it and where can I find one?
The wife thinks its an unwise purchase for a Xikar $35 punch. If I want to keep below the radar, i'd best listen.
HELP!

Re: Good Cheap punch?

I've seen some really cheap punches on Cbid for $3, but the nicer retractable type are closer to $10 if you can be patient and wait for the right deal.

BTW, Way cool avatar!

Thanks for the reply, Im just afraid that inexpensive may mean "cheap" too.
I have heard of others on puff saying that their $5 special mangles cigars instead of cutting them.

Re: Good Cheap punch?

I've been using a cheapo $4.95 punch for all my cigars the past 4 months. It works great.

It looks like this:

Soory about the picture quality but that's all I get off my phone.

I haven't had any issues with it tearing or not cutting right. You do have to know how to use one. I use a twisting motion with light pressure.

Re: Good Cheap punch?

JR has a punch for 3.50 shipped. It's a key chain. I got it and it works like a charm.

The bullet punch key chain is like 13 bucks, that looks pretty cool.

Re: Good Cheap punch?

I found a three-flame torch lighter at a gas station in Hooks, TX that has a punch built in to it. i paid about $3 for it. I had a punch that I bought for about $4 or so at a B&M, but it has started to get dull. This one in the lighter seems very sharp and does a good job. I'll try to post a picture of it later (when I can).

Re: Good Cheap punch?

I'm using a retractable punch cutter from Cuban Crafters and I have no complaints so far. $10 with a lifetime guarentee.
