Its knife/cigar cutter dual functionality will make you find your LE PETIT useful in a variety of strategic situations such as opening your mail, slicing lemons for your mojito or, as we often do in France, having an aperitif with a few friends.
LE PETIT by LES FINES LAMES has been designed to be no bigger than the other cutters on the market while being much more versatile adding the pocket knife dual functionality. Two in one: save space on your EDC (Everyday Carry).
Its leather sheath fits perfectly into your pocket. And it comes with a lanyard hole for added safety!

I was hesitant at first to spend the money on a new type of cutter (for me). I purchased the Les Fines Lames Punch Bracelet and was really impressed with the quality. So now that I know they make a great looking product I decided to try the knife. It took me a few cigars to get the hang of it, but now it’s my everyday cutter. The tension screw that holds the blade to the handle did take a little bit of playing with to get just right. It would work itself loose and requires a bit of re-tightening, but after a few times it finally seems to be sitting just right. Don’t forget to get one of the leather sheaths to protect your investment. Should you buy one? The answer is yes, you need to. Would I buy another? Absolutely!

It being a natural wood product, the wood handle has more of a Brown-Redish hue color to it. Does not exactly match the photos provided by Les Fines Lames. That is only knock I have against the Le Petit. Still it is a very nice color and I love the idea that it is made of Olive wood. It makes an excellent Everyday Carry but I plan to use it only for cigars (nope, I will not be cutting up lemons or gutting a fish with it).
Looking at the assembly, it appears one can disassemble the knife to clean it and maintenance the knife which gets me to love the cutter even more.
