tempbond Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 I've wanted to buy a Credo triple punch cutter for a few months, but they are very difficult to find. It has 3 sizes : 6 mm, 10 mm and 14 mm and comes with a silicone case with a key chain. I managed to find one by phone in Montreal at Vasco cigars after e-mailing Credo : they have the square model in black for 60$. I would like to get the oval model in silver. I know Davidoff makes a triple punch which is very nice, but too expensive for me right now. So has anyone bought this and do you like it ?
riazp Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 man thats pretty cool, they have the square one in vasco you say?
Cohiba Stevie Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 Cool! If you find it hard to get a hold of may i suggest the wenger cigar swiss army knife? It also has 3 punch sizes on it.
ckearns Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 Nice! I could go for one. Group buy?? Good idea.
riazp Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 Nice! I could go for one. Group buy?? Group buy sounds good, how would we do this though? order direct from the manufacturer?

tempbond Posted January 30, 2012 Author Posted January 30, 2012 Group buy sounds good, how would we do this though? order direct from the manufacturer? I called the company in France and the only way to buy it is from distributors. They told me that Vasco had it ...

Puros Y Vino Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 I might order one. Any TO folks interested in grabbing one?
ckearns Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 I might order one. Any TO folks interested in grabbing one? I'd like one, Frank. Any colour is fine, but I'd prefer titanium or black if I have a choice.
cigcars Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 Whew, sure looks like a whole lotta work just to cut my damn cigar! I'll just stick to my Zino or Mean Sardine two finger guillotine cutter! 1
JohnS Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 I know I'm resurrecting an old thread, but I appreciate your comments on other threads on this Credo 3-in-1 punch, bundwallah and LLC. I needed an excuse to get a quality punch cutter as my cutter attached to my lighter broke a few weeks ago. Anyway, as can be seen from the images below, the design has been updated a little and it's slightly smaller than I thought. I also like the information on the packaging. I imported this cutter directly from Credo's US website at around half the price I'd pay to purchase it on eBay from England. I already used the 10mm cut a few times and I've noticed a slight change in the way I draw on corona-sized cigars (42 ring gauge). Previously, with my 7mm lighter cutter I needed two quick puffs to get the same volume of smoke I get from 1 longer puff with a 10mm punch cut. 1
Habana Mike Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 I picked up one of the oval-style Credo triples a year or so back and really find it particularly useful for the smallest and largest ring gauge cigars.
helix Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 Very cool. I want one. Dropped and chipped my cutter the other day.
irratebass Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 That's pretty fancy John...I dig it...enjoy, thanks for sharing. 1
Cohiba Stevie Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 I actually have one of these as reuslt of this thread nearly 4 years ago! Lol I must say though im not too keen on it, quite blunt to be fair and the build quality isnt brilliant. I do like the fact that it has 3 sizes though. Maybe i will get it out for another go to see if i warm to it any more
helix Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 A punch must be very sharp to perform well. Any more punch recommendations?
Cohiba Stevie Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 Victorinox make a swiss army knife with three punches on it, can be quite hard to find though. I used a friends punch at a herf a year or two ago which was a xikar, i found it to be excellent. In fact he is a member here (drguano) so maybe he can share his thoughts
