Thanks for letting Me be dumb for a second. I was watching the lava lamp and said"SQUIRL" I was thinking of a three sided blade that comes from three sides in a circle type of way that looks neat to watch as the looks.

The tuck cutter was the best investment I made when I started rolling my own cigars.

Some pictures of Smokin' Harley's homemade tuck cutter. Very nice attention to detail, while keeping the price manageable. I kept forgetting to take the camera to the basement so I apologize for taking so long to post these. It does a really neat job.



The length gauge is nicely shaped with numerals stamped into the wood denoting cigar length from 4-8 inches, with a dot at each 1/2 inch interval. This is the only part I would change. I would use a countersunk carriage bolt from the bottom with a wing nut on top to eliminate the need for a screw driver. However, the way it is functions perfectly.



Views of the cutter, cutter handle, and cutter tightness adjustment.







Thank you Smokin' Harley for a well made piece of equipment. I'd like to see these sold through WLT. It's a quality piece. I'm knocking around the idea of rubbing in some food grade bar top oil to make the grain pop, but will probably leave it as is. It is made for indoor use anyway.
