Xikar Scissors vs. Cutter

[Izzy44]

Im trying to to find my first cutter. I was thinking either a palio or xikar but my friend (that I usually always smoke with) got himself a palio. So I figured that I would pick myself up a xikar just to have somthing different. I wanted to see what people thought because I was thinking on getting either the scissors or the cutter. I never cut with either so wanted to see what everyones take was. Thanks in advance.

I love my Palio, I also love my xikar metal punch. I would also like the scissors. I got my buddy a pair.

Get the Palio in a different color!!!!!! The Palio is the best

Good scissors are hard to beat, I have been using a pair of Donatus for ten years, still sharp and still make a perfect cut. Scissors are a bit bulky to carry around with you away from home on those occasions I use a Palio.

Get the Xikar, any company that has reps as hot as Belinda gets my business!

Love my Palio..

Live my xikar, but used hendy's Palio last week and was an awesome cutter too. You'll be happy with either one.

Palio is more reliable. If you are looking for a scissor, get a Swiss Army Knife cigar scissor.

I have only used a palio once but it was nice. I carry my Xikar scissor everywhere with me!!!

Xikar is what I use. It works fantastic and I think its hard to beat the appearance of the Xi3 redwood. I love mine.

Thanks everyone. I'm probably going to go with the xikar cutter. My friends palio seems to stick a little when using it, which I didn't like. And I don't think you can go wrong with either company.

Yep, but is this going to be for your smoking lounge. If so I nice pair of scissors will great but if you take it out I would say Palio.

Love my Palio too, but hey, if want a different than what your buddy has that's cool.

Well last night was my graduation party. With countless cigars that I got from friends and family, my buddy surprised me with a pair of xikar scissors. They are awsome with the multi tool and everything. I was surprised that they fold up rather nicely and its perfect to put on a key chain. Also my brothers girlfriend got me some sticks and this cutter....http://www.cubancrafters.com/products.php/item_id/2887.....that I also tried last night. This thing is great and you get perfect cuts with it everytime.
