Everything you need to know
Keychain 2-in-1 Some enthusiasts prefer to pierce a cigar rather than cut off its head. FACETTE is designed for them: a keychain cigar piercer that slips into a pocket and combines two tools in a single cylindrical capsule. On one side, a cigar punch with a circular drill bit opens a round, clean hole in the cigar head; the wrapper remains intact, the draw is concentrated, and fewer tobacco strands end up in the mouth. On the other, under the cap, a two-pronged support fork can be inserted into the foot of the cigar to hold it until the end without burning your fingers. The lower part, cut with diamond-point facets, ensures a firm grip, while a knurled ring highlights the center of the capsule. The body is made of metal alloy, and the ring allows you to attach it to your keychain. Available in five colors (black, silver, blue, gold, and red) and presented in a black case, this unique pocket cigar cutter quickly becomes the cigar accessory you take everywhere.
The highlights of the cigar piercer
Facets and metal alloy
The diamond point, an architect's motif
The diamond point motif has a long history. Builders in Renaissance Italy already used it on some facades: pyramidal bosses that catch the light and change appearance throughout the day. Cabinetmakers later adopted it on furniture panels, then goldsmiths and jewelers on smaller objects. On FACETTE, these raised facets are not just decorative: they give the thumb and index finger a precise support when turning the drill bit in the cigar head.
The body is made of metal alloy, with a metal drill bit at the end of the capsule. The metal gives the object a sense of density in the hand and withstands the daily friction of a bunch of keys. The central knurled ring, derived from the vocabulary of precision mechanics, marks the separation between the faceted part and the top of the capsule.
Pierce rather than cut
The punch gesture
There are two ways to open a cigar. The guillotine cut slices the head and exposes its entire surface. The cigar piercer, on the other hand, opens a simple round hole in the center of the head. The gesture is more discreet, almost confidential: a few turns of the wrist, and the cigar is ready.
This choice changes the tasting experience. With a smaller opening, the smoke arrives in a more concentrated way; the wrapper remains intact around the hole, which limits the tobacco strands that break off in the mouth. Many enthusiasts alternate between the two methods depending on the cigar size and the mood of the moment: piercing or cutting a cigar is not a quarrel, they are two complementary tools.
FACETTE adds a second consideration to this gesture: the support fork, hidden under the cap, which allows you to enjoy the cigar until its last puffs by holding it away from your fingers.
Pierce a cigar in four steps
Punch or guillotine cutter?
| Criterion | FACETTE cigar piercer | Guillotine cigar cutter |
|---|---|---|
| Opening | Round hole in the center of the head | The entire head is sliced |
| Wrapper | Remains intact around the hole | Cut clean all around |
| Draw | More concentrated | More open |
| Strands in mouth | Limited | Depending on the cleanness of the cut |
| Recommended sizes | Rounded heads, common modules | All sizes, including pointed heads |
| Transport | On the keychain | In a pocket or case |
| Additional function | Support fork under the cap | Generally none |
Good to know: the box contains a 2-in-1 keychain cigar piercer and its presentation case. The cigars visible in the photos are for staging purposes only: no cigar is provided. The manufacturer does not communicate dimensions or weight for this model; the punch is suitable for cigars of common module.
Enthusiast's tip: the punch gives its best on the rounded heads of classic formats. For a pointed-head cigar (torpedo, figurado), prefer a guillotine cut. Keep both tools at hand and choose according to the cigar of the day.

Precautions for use: the drill bit and the prongs of the fork are pointed parts. Always pierce by moving the drill bit away from your fingers, replace the cap after use and store the tool out of reach of children. Before stabbing the fork into the foot, check that the ember is sufficiently away from the prongs.
