Cohiba gift set

[kbitz]

I like it when people don't get angry.

I also like Cohibas, and I'm a newb. I, therefore, don't think they're so very newb inappropriate. However, I've only smoked the regular line, not the XV or the Cohiba Black, so I can't vouch for two thirds of that set.

I have a question about Xicars. Everyone seems to love them. I use a Zino cutter. It's a double Guillotine cutter, doesn't really require maintenance, fits in any pocket and has yet to give me a bad cut. I know guys who have had theirs for years. Googling reveals the price is very similar to the Xicar.

That being said, I hear nothing about them on here. Do you guys just not like them, or have you not tried them, or is the Xicar just so amazing that it's impossible not to fall in love with them instantly?

Personally, I like it because it's simple and looks like a cheap cutter, so people don't instantly go, "Ooh, shiny!" when I use it.

I have a zino cutter. I don't like it as much as my xikar. It definitely didn't stay sharp for long, and just felt too small for my hands.

Oh, cool.

In that case, when it dulls I'll probably replace it with a Xicar.

Thanks!

I have a Xikar and I love it. It cuts smoothly everytime and I've never had one problem with it.
