Cutter recommendations

Post by Clynch »

I'm in the market for a new cutter and would like you know your opinion. I'm leaning towards a Palio right now. What do you guys think?

Xikar.

I have a Palio but it seems to dull faster. I don't get a great cut since the last time I had it sent in for warranty. It cracks the wrapper every time.

With my Xikar I get a great cut every time.

Thank you. Xikar was my next guess. I'll consider that!

I just switched to the Xikar scissors. I love em. you can take off exactly what you want. I use a zino cutter for anything with a point i.e.torpedo, bellicose, or #2 style cigars.

I have both, but prefer the Xikar.  I have 3 now.  Best customer service and warranty in the business.  If it ever gets dull or a handle breaks (I dropped mine) they replace it or fix it for free - lifetime!

They have the best lighters also! I had the triple flame and one of the jets clogged. I took it to the store where I bought it. Showed them, walked out with a brand new one...... No questions asked....

Exactly!  I have a Xikar windproof soft flame lighter . . . best lighter I have ever owned.

If you are looking at the Palio. Xikar makes it own version called the X8, which I happen to own. Best cutter ever IMO.
