I always thought they were to be cut straight across,
but didn’t know if there was some other way.

"but didn’t know if there was some other way" I didn't know either but aperntly there are several : • Trim the wick to a point if you want a peaked flame. Cut the wick into two points if you want a double flame. Burn pointed flames so they are no more than 3/4 inch tall. Round off the top of the wick to create a crowned flame. It also should burn no more than 3/4 inch high Read more : http://www.ehow.com/how_5199279_trim-kerosene-lamp-wick.html
