Xikar Differences (FYI)

[N2Advnture]

I get the question "What are the differences between all the Xikar models?" a lot, so I thought I post this up:

They all have the same exact blades, the only difference are the finishes used for the handles.

All "Xi" cutter blades are made of high quality 440 stainless steel with an HRC of 57.
All "Xi" cutters will cut a 54 ring gauge cigar in half. Depending on how much cap you cut, they will cut up to a 58 ring gauge cigar.
All Xikar products come with the Xikar lifetime warranty.

Xi MSRP: $59.99

Aluminum bodies in Titanium, Black, Gold, Silver, Red & Blue

Xi2 MSRP: $39.99

Nylon fiberglass bodies in Bloodstone, Granite, Lapis Blue, Malachite Green & Noir Black

Xi3 MSRP: $79.99

Wood finished bodies in Redwood, Beechwood, Zebrawood
Titanium Nitride coated bodies in Multi-color Spectra & STK Black
"Tech" rubberize body

Xi3 Exotic MSRP: $99.99

Exotic wood finished bodies in Amboina Burl, Bocote & Cocobolo

Xi3 Mammoth MSRP: $299.99

10,000 year old mammoth's tusks

Xi3 Havana MSRP: $299.99

Parisian artist begins by fashioning handles of French maple wood to fit the Xi3 body. He then hand paints the handles in one of five vibrant colors, including green, yellow, red, blue and black.



I hope this helps and happy smoking my friends!

Thanks for the info, Mark. I gotta tell you, though, I still love that Palio I got from ya, buddy!

I wonder why the pivot points are different...some have screwy things, some have rivety things (I'm so technical, eh?)

I was tottally going to buy that one, until the girl who lights our smokes at the lounge got one. Ever since then it's appeared to pink/girly to me. but now that it doubles as a bottle opener, It has just gained a little more manliness. It may be back on my need to buy list.

I thought I might be the only weird one, so I didn't want post my desire for one.

The Havana cutters are slick, but the price isn't :eyequiver

 

[daniyal]

those mammoth tusk cutters would be super sweet if only they weren't so damn expensive... group buy maybe?

My wife got me the Xi in blue for Valentine's Day. It will taste it's first puro tonight.

I would like the Havana tri-fecta. the cutter, Envoy Case and the Lighter as well, how cool would that be?

 

[Smurf]

I have the cutter Xi3. I have been thinking about an envoy Case.
Which lighter are you talking about?

I now run Xikar... and Damn it, I want that "mammoth tusk" too! The cutters work flawlessly but just to pull out the "tusk" would be most cool.. :agreesmil
