Why don't you just use a normal cutter? Every time I've used a punch they seem the loosen up the cap. But my 10 dollar cutter has never given me any problems.

Do you moisten the cigar head before punching ? If so, then why not try sharpening, but perhaps stones would be better.

Never herd o' that.

But I've started to like punch cutters, I have. I like that a punch cuts parallel to the filler and perpendicular to the cap, which seem the right way, unlike the guillotine.

Sharpen from inside the ring with a razor blade. Like your sharpening a dugout bat.
Don't mess with the outside edge unless you have to.

Get the tip wet first, twist and GENTLY push AS you twist.

If you screw it up get a new one or use a cutter.

Try a "v" cutter. It will leave the majority of the cap on. I switch up between a regular cutter and the v cutter.
