Palio or Xikar?

[JDP]

I've decided to finally get a nice cutter and I'm not sure which to get. These seem to be the most popular so I'd like to hear what you all think and what the positives and negatives of each are.

Palio Palio Palio. Xikar looks cool and has a great warranty. With the Palio you won't need a warranty.

Palio.... And get if from Mark at Cigarmony or Ron at Cigar Solutions for a great price too!

I have two Xikar's and one Palio. I like both, but I use the one I have one of the most. I love it.

Palio.. though while trolling through the many malls here in Dubai I came upon a fake Xikar or may be it was the real deal I don't know this place is crazy expensive... I'll go check it out again and may be pick it up.

I have both. Both are great, but I always prefer the Palio. And Mark at cigarmony.com is definitely the go-to guy for these.

Well I think I have my answer. Thanks for the input guys. :smile:

How about this as a third choice the Swiss Army Knife cutter. I have two Palios and a SAK, I've been putting off getting a Xikar but I will eventually. I want to have at least one. I love the Palio because as two have said you can use it as a rest when you don't have anything available.

You guys are convincing me to get a Palio - I've been wanting one, but keep putting it off.

My current go-to is the Xikar folding (powder-coated) scissor on my keychain. I love it.

I have a Palio, a Xikar, and a SAK.

I use the Palio and the SAK most of the time (the SAK makes a better cut) and I bet I haven't cut a cigar with my Xikar in 6+ months.

SAK and Xikar here. I use SAK while traveling for the convienience and keep the Xikar on my desk at home. I agree that the SAK makes a great cut!!!

 

[RigilKent]

I have a Xikar and love it but havent used a palio. so i may have to get one because of how much people like them
