Abstract

An axially movable plunger (16) is fitted within the cylindrical cutting head (14) of a plug-type cigar cutter (10). The plunger (16) is provided with a stop mechanism which causes it to come to a rest in a position in which the plunger (16) protrudes to, and preferably partially beyond, the cutting edge (22) of the cutter head (14). In this manner, the cutting edge (22) is protected against damage and the user is protected against injury from the cutting edge (22). In order to utilize the cutter (10), the plunger (16) is drawn inwardly, behind the cutting edge, and a plug is cut from the cigar by forcing the cutting head (14) into the sealed end of the cigar. The plunger (16) is then urged forward, expelling the plug, until it comes to rest in its stopped position. The cigar cutter (10) may then be stored safely.
