Les Fines Lames Introduces Le TAG – Clip Money Clip Cigar Cutter

January 25, 2026 Inspector X 3 min read

Les Fines Lames has unveiled a new everyday carry accessory. The product is called Le TAG – Clip. It combines a cigar cutter with a functional money clip.

The release builds on the brand’s success with Le PETIT, Le TAG, and the Punch Bracelet.

Le TAG Clip cutter

A Cutter Designed for Daily Use

Le TAG – Clip evolves the brand’s dog tag cutter concept. The addition of a clip changes how users carry their cutter. It can function as a money clip or a pocket clip.

The goal is constant accessibility. The cutter stays discreet, secure, and ready for use. Les Fines Lames positions it as an essential item for cigar aficionados.

Slim Profile, Serious Performance

Le TAG – Clip measures just 8mm in thickness. Despite the slim profile, it delivers full cutting performance. The cutter features razor-sharp stainless steel double blades.

It can cut cigars up to 100 ring gauge. That capacity exceeds most standard cutters. The design focuses on clean cuts with minimal effort.

“Cut. Clip. Done.” summarises the concept. The cutter aims to remove friction from the smoking ritual.

Philosophy Behind the Product

The design reflects the brand’s broader approach to accessories. Les Fines Lames emphasises readiness and versatility.

Fabien Kerneis, Head of Digital at Les Fines Lames, explained the thinking behind the product. He highlighted preparedness as a core value. The company wants smokers to always have the right tool on hand.

Retailer-First Launch Strategy

For the first six months, Le TAG – Clip will not be sold online. Consumers can only purchase it through participating cigar retailers. Lesfineslames.com will not carry the product during this period.

The retailer exclusivity runs from 9 February to 9 August 2026. Les Fines Lames designed this strategy to support its retail partners.

The brand now works with nearly 700 official retailers worldwide. That network has grown steadily since launch. The company views retailer priority as essential when introducing new products.

Web-to-Store Campaign

Les Fines Lames will support the launch with a global web-to-store campaign. The campaign runs from 9 February to 9 August 2026. Marketing efforts will direct consumers to participating cigar shops.

This approach highlights physical retail at a time when many brands move online first.

Finishes, Pricing, and Availability

Le TAG – Clip comes in five finishes. The options are Champ, Black, ODG, Red, and Blue. Each finish maintains the same slim profile and cutting performance.

The MSRP is set at $120 or €120. Les Fines Lames will make the cutter available to retailers worldwide during the exclusivity window.
