Is my new cutter a good one?

I bought a new cutter today, cant stand those crappy ones. Its a "Meansardine" Xikar, $10. It feels awesome and cuts great. Just wondering other opinions on this cutter, anyone have it?

The sardine is on the left, a standard Xikar is on the right.

I have just recently seen references to this cutter from Xikar and no reviews of performance.

I believe it is a new item from Xikar or they bought the design and name from a different company to cobrand it, but someone else may know more specific information.

But at $10.00, it seems like a good deal.

Do you know if it has any kind of warranty or guarantee from Xikar?

I love my Xikar cutter - so much that I hardly carry it with me so I don't wreck it... Which is stupid because they have a lifetime guarantee on 'em.... It just looks so damn purty....

If it works and lasts, then look after it. At the moment I seem to be on a 3 cutters a month habit.

Yes, the Meansardine is new, and is only distributed by Xikar. As of right now I think its an excellant cutter.

I have a Xikar and I love it, it cuts great and looks swell to boot. Not sure about the one you bought since mine is different.

if it cuts well, than its a good cutter lol. I just recently got the Xikar Cigar Multi-tool and carry it around with me wherever I go, I absolutely love it.

In a pinch you can just use a sharpened pencil to poke a hole in the end
