I stick with my Xikar. Can be gotten all over the place. Works well enough I haven't needed anything else.

OK. Jason is the only one to respond in my impatient time frame and since he is a canidate for BOM....I took his valuable advice and purchased 2 Xikar cutters. One of the top of the line with rosewood (Xi3) and one of the Xi in blue. :smokingco
Thanks Jason :kissforeh :rolling: :rolling: :rolling:

LOL, glad to know my nomination means so much! I doubt you'll be disappointed bro'! That Rosewood handled Xikar is a nice looking cutter.
was gonna say my Palio works great (i think you can get them at bargain humidors - but some ppl dont like dealing with them).
i've also heard that the same place has a single blade "havana cutter" that works well.

I love my Palio and those little Havana cutters work like a champ. Especially for the price.
Never used a Xicar but they seem pretty good by all accounts I've seen.

You can't go wrong with a Xikar or a SAK!

Palios are a bitch to get now. Looks like the Manufacturer is long gone.

I think you'll like your Xikar. I got mine on ebay and it's been great.

from what i hear, they (palio) have new ownership with big plans.
stay tuned to the different forums for posts from the new owners.
and, i have yet to have a better cutter than my Palio.

Are the owners active participants on any other boards?
I'm still using my very first Palio and it still cuts like brand new. :thumbsup: I gifted one, sold another and have one left as a backup just in case they become extinct. Glad to hear this isn't the case. :blob:

Yup, they try to stand in touch with what people say and want from their product.
IHT is correct, good stuff coming!

That post is 6 months old bro! I have no doubts on the future of Palio and is the only cutter I use or recommend.

hahaha too funny. Besides for the slight plastic flaw everything is the same between the old and the new.

I have both a Palio and a band new Xikar Xi (thanks to their lifetime sharpening policy) and I really like them both. Since I got the free case for the Xi, it will probably stay in nicer shape than the last one did. I have to say that the heft of the Xi is a little more satisfying, but they both give a great smooth cut.

The weight of the Xi is nice. The cut is just so much better on the palio. We need a palio that is dressier.
