Shit! My Xikar broke.....

[Mizicke5273]

It fell off the desk, hit the floor and, fell apart! WTF, seriously. I thought it was tougher than this. It fell about 3ft or less and barely hit the floor. The floor is concrete but its made of metal and I dont think it should of broke with just that. Damn blades came out, spring came out. Ill be calling xikar this weekend to get it fixed.

Im also gona be ordering a Palio as well tonight! Ive been wanting to try one of these for a while, and figure its a good time to now. Ill use the xikar as a backup or something once its replaced.

Xikar should be able to replace/fix your cutter. You registered your cutter online right? Don't worry too much about it. Heard so much good things about the Palio cutters. Keep us updated if you decided to get one.

Yup, broke mine last week. Took it out of my jacket and tossed it to a carpeted floor. It blew up. I'll be sending mine back next week. Usually takes about a week to get it back.

love my xikar. but palio does give you a cleaner cut, IMHO...

Heard of few problems with Xikar, and they always take care of the customer as far as I've heard. Had my all metal Xikar since 00 or 01 and it works great. Never sharpened, only cleaned and oiled a handfull of times. Did tighten down the screws once though. And it's seen plenty of use. It's scratched and dinged all to hell. Finish is wearing off a little too. Opened a few beer bottles even, but that will really gouge it.

Thanks Maduro Man, but I already sent my in for a replacement.

I appreciate the offer none the less.
