Xikar Xi3 or Palio cutter?
 
I've been using a plastic Cuban Crafters Perfect Cutter and while it cuts decent I've been wanting to upgrade. Which would you recommend?

I have both, and use the Palio 90%+ of the time.

You use it 100% of the time, 80% of the time. :)

I have two Palios and that's all I use. I had a Xikar but it pinched my hands a couple times and that pissed me off, so it's gone.

I own three Palio's and love them. I've owned a couple of Xikar's but I did not like the cut, but I do like their mechanism. :2

My Palio is the only cutter I use, but I also only use a cutter on torpedoes and other shaped cigars. For all flat capped cigars I prefer a punch.

Palio for me.

I have neither but have used both and prefer the Palio on performance, although I think the Xikar is better looking.

From Anchorman on Sekks Panther cologne: 60% of the time, it works every time.

Both are good -- you can't go wrong with either one (or both).

I have both and use the Palio most of the time. I only use my Xi2 when I can't find the Palio. I occasionally use the Xikar V cutter for small RG cigars and MTX multi tool when I have the time and good lighting. :2

Bought my first Palio and Xikar about 8 or 9 years ago I think and I've cut maybe 12 cigars with the xikar.......thousands with the Palio :tu

I've had both, and I prefer the Palio. I'll be buying a second Palio very soon.
