In the market for a good cutter

[r3db4r0n]

Well after 5-6 years of cigar smoking I think I can finally justify putting some real money out for a proper cutter and a lighter as opposed to buying a cheap $5 cutter that I have to replace every year and using what ever butane flame is lying around the house.

Suggestions?

Well you have three choices.

PALIO, PALIO, PALIO!

You decide.

there is a palio camp and a xikar camp as far as cutters go. each will tell you theirs is the best. try them out and see what fits your hand and feels most comfortable.
lighters are tougher. plus they seem to be much easier to lose!

Palio is great. But if you loose your cutters like I do stick with the cheap ones.
If you end up getting a lighter Blazer little buddy.

Palio is the way to go. Great cutter and it doubles as a cigar rest.

I have never tried a Palio, but I got a Xikar and love it. I honestly could not believe how great it cut, as I was using another cutter forever. Plus if the cutter gets dull you can send it back to Xikar and they will sharpen it for free, lifetime warranty.

I have no experience with Palio. I've had no problems with my Xikar cutter. Have used the warranty on my Xikar lighter once absolutely no problem getting my replacement either, just went to a retailer and they swapped it out.

i would have ordered a palio if I knew ron was offering this kind of deal, as it stands I have a xikar xi2 coming my way...about 32 shipped.

my .02 worth. I have a palio, xikar and colibri cutter. Of the three the palio is the most used. I have had it for a couple of months and really like it (and the stand from RonC) the xikar comes in second. The palio just seems to slice the cigar like warm butter and it has a great look and feel. I have had the xikar for a few years and have sent it in once to be sharpened but other than that I have had no issues with it. As for a lighter, I found a torch on e**y for $3 that has a large tank and works just fine.

The deal Ron is offering is a steal. The Ronson and Palio will set you for years if not a lifetime. Xicar in the car gets used once a month. Palio gets used daily.

 

[keinreis]

totally reccomend the palio and Ron!!

I also give Palio/RonC a thumbs up.

 

[r3db4r0n]

Looks like I'm going with ron! thanks guys

I reccomend a decent strait razor or an exacto knife and a book of matches.
