The Modus Cigar Tool is a unique accessory designed to enhance the cigar smoker's experience. It combines two handy tools into one very elegant format, a draw tool for improving airflow in cigars that are rolled too tightly, and a "nubber" for holding a very short remaining portion of a cigar (the "nub") to more safely continue smoking the cigar down to its very end.
Now available on Amazon in two color choices, "Maduro" and "Rosado", the Modus Cigar Tool sells for $39.99 and is eligible for free shipping. Also look for them "coming soon to a B&M near you!"
Three-piece threaded metal bands (brass or stainless steel ferrules, depending on the model) unscrew to reveal the stainless steel draw tool skewer (bottom) and twin stainless steel nubber needles (top) under the hollow wooden covers. The draw tool skewer is notched to facilitate removing small bits of tobacco when creating an air channel. This helps to ensure the air channel doesn’t close back up. Multiple passes with the draw tool may be necessary to resolve draw issues in extremely tightly rolled, or plugged, cigars. The draw tool is typically inserted from the head of the cigar after clipping, though it can be used from the foot of the cigar as well. For smaller ring gauge (RG) cigars, it is advisable to begin by only inserting the draw tool as far as the first notch (approximately 1”), then go progressively deeper on each subsequent pass. This will help to avoid splitting the cigar’s wrapper by creating too much internal pressure at once. It may take several passes to adequately improve the draw on some cigars. Nubber needles have a matte finish near the tips to help provide a more secure hold on the cigar. Both tools have extremely sharp points. KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN!
At 6 ¾” x 44 RG (or about ¾” diameter) when closed, the Modus Cigar Tool fits nicely in most cigar cases and travel humidors for carrying along… or just drop in your pocket with the wooden covers in place. High quality materials include exotic woods such as Rosewood on the Rosado model and Ebony on the Maduro. Note that these are natural woods with wood stain that will exhibit natural variation in color, tone, and grain. All Modus products carry a Lifetime Limited Warranty.
