Les Fines Lames has added the Havana Street Series, three new design options for its Le Petit cutter, each inspired by Havana, Cuba.

Each cutter has a painted design on the handle that shows a scene from Havana:

  • Almendrón — depicts the classic American cars of Havana that are a common sight throughout the city.
  • Habana Vieja — shows Old Havana, which contains some of the city’s most iconic buildings.
  • Hacia El Malecón — shows the famous waterfront located in northern Havana.

Outside of the new artwork design on the handle, the rest of the cutters are the same as in previous versions. That means it measures 4.53 inches when closed and 6.18 inches when open. The blade is the standard 14C28N stainless steel blade that is found on many other versions of the Le Petit. The knife works by opening the knife blade from the body, which reveals a half-moon cut-out that is designed to cut the cap of a cigar. Les Fine Lames says the cutter can cut cigars up to 70 ring gauge. All Les Fines Lames cigar knives are made in France.

Each cutter in the Art Series has an MSRP of $169 is now shipping to stores.
