<p>A combination pen and cigar cutter (10) includes a bottom barrel portion of a writing instrument (14) for receiving an ink cartridge (20) therein, and a barrel-like cigar cutter (16) threadably connected thereto having a sharpened annular top edge for cutting the end of a cigar. A cap (18) is releasably received over the cigar cutter and is rotatably moveable between a first position where the tip of the ink cartridge is in a writing mode, and a second position where the tip of the ink cartridge is retraced within the barrel of the writing instrument. The cap (18) may be removed revealing the cigar cutter, which has a plunger (32) mounted therein which is moved to a retractable position before cutting the end of a cigar and is then moved to an extended position after the cigar has been cut for ejecting the plug of tobacco from the cutter. The arrangement is such that the rotary movement of the cap and cutter in one direction simultaneously moves the ink cartridge to its writing mode and the cutter plunger to its retracted position, and rotary movement in the opposite direction simultaneously retracts the ink cartridge and extends the cutter plunger.</p> |
