Toothpicks, that's my best way to puff down to the nub on the good ones.

While I have spearing options, if it's good I'll hang on to the bastid until I can't stand the searing pain in my fingertips

If I have my one lighter, it has a metal poker on the bottom. Works great.

I can tell you what DOESN’T work. Breaking off two of the outer tines on a plastic fork and the using the two middle ones to stab into the cigar. It worked effectively until I was done and pulled the fork out and the two melted tines came out followed by the long, stretchy plastic trails. Pretty sure I ingested some toxins from the melted plastic.

Live and learn.

You folk need to toughen up. I just hold on to it until there is next to nothing left. To hell with the pain and skin burns.

I got one of those perfecdraw brand tools. It works wonders on plugged cigars, and is damn good as a nubbing tool as well.

Mark!

Everyone who's ever had one of those seems to love them. Each time I see them mentioned or see one, I go online to buy one....and then find that I can never quite pull the trigger -- not that I can't afford it...just that a $35 ice pick sorta rattles my sensibilities...I know it's probably worth it -- would even pay for itself, likely....just can't do it so far

LOL....I already got plenty of cheap stuff that doesn't work as well as a perfectdraw

I wrestled with that myself for a while but eventually went for it. The perfecdraw is pretty awesome. Normal pokers clear a path but then clog up again, assuming tar. This drills in and the barbs pull loose tobacco back out with it, leaving pathways clear. I've saved a lot of lousy smokes and possible cerebral hemorrhage

I'm not sponsored but if anyone knows the perfec people, I'd be willing to discuss it

If you're having problems doing your nub, roll your target in flour and hit the wet spots.
