Let us know how you like that cutter. I've heard from many people that Palios are the way to go, but who knows.

well, so far, It's taking a bit to get used to the different grip used, compared to the thumb-finger loop style that I'm accustomed to. but I really like the heft it has, and it's plenty sharp.

My next cutter will probably be a Palio, just because I've heard a lot of good things as well. Mainly that the blades are thinner, giving less resistance.

Nice........I'm still resisting, but I'm getting closer to caving in.

Me too. My buddies pick on me when I pull out my $1 cutter to cut a nice cigar. I won a nice dunhill round cutter. But the first time I used it I had a hard time cutting with it so I gave up. Might try it again.

Do I ever know how that feels......I usually get the double whammy....$1 cutter and $.99 bic lighter. They hang the shit, I just smile and say , my smoke still tastes like a Padron!!

Is there a big quality difference between the different Xikar models. I have an Xi2 (the cheapest one) and it is ok, but I also have a Palio which I love. But because I am weird I guess, I feel the need to have more than one nice cutter. I wouldn't have a big issue with paying for a different model but wondered if I would basically get the same quality. If so, I'll just wait and get another Palio in a different finish.

I believe the cutting blades are the same on all models, even the $300.00+ "Mammoth" model.

Basically, i think you just pay for the different materials / finishes.
