I believe the answer is:

craig

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'stony he may be but can still' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'manage a cigar' is the wordplay.
'manage' is an anagram indicator (I've seen this in other clues).
'cigar' is an anagram of 'CRAIG'.

Can you help me to learn more?
