New Xikar VX V-Cut
 

Xikar has a new V-Cutter coming out this fall called the VX V-Cut. I was lucky enough to get one ahead of time to try out. The thing is sweet and I wanted to share a couple pics. And a full review here http://bit.ly/dAgAFR

$49.99 seems a bit expensive. I have a $2 V-cutter that works just fine.

I have a 2008 ford pick that works fine but its not as nice as a 2011 GT 500! If you like a V cut and don't want to spend that much money you should look for the Wolf, same blade as the one above but plastic body, goes for $10 to $15 and I promise you that you will fall in love with it and you won't say "it works just fine".

I have cut a cigar with a $2 guillotine cutter but wouldn't trade it for my Palio

I kinda like the V-cut maybe I'll pick one this up this fall

Re: New Xikar VX V-Cut
 

I concur about it being a bit expensive. I'm very loyal to my Xikar MTX which can be had for about $30.

Thanks for the review TX. I'll prob look around for a coupon or wait for a sale on these since I do like the V-Cut option.

i also have the $2 V-cutter and def keep that in the golf bag as a back-up to a back-up. It works but it's not the most consistent cut.

Nevermind...

Re: New Xikar VX V-Cut
 

I've NEVER seen you use a V-Cut.... liar ;) and that looks like a great cutter... I may have to try that new fangled v-cut out ;)

Re: New Xikar VX V-Cut
 

DANG... cool cutter. Certainly looks like a quality V-Cutter.

(Must resist! I hardly ever v-cut, but that Xikar looks sweet.) :banger

That is because you never come up to cigar night anymore :td

Re: New Xikar VX V-Cut
 

Very nice pictures. I want one!

Re: New Xikar VX V-Cut
 

Why would you V-Cut?

Re: New Xikar VX V-Cut
 

It is just another cut. No real reason behind it for me but def better thank my random pinch with finger nails method ;)

It supposedly concentrates the smoke of the cigar so that you can focus it on your pallet. I personally have never experienced a difference from a regular cut.

Re: New Xikar VX V-Cut
 

I like v-cut so this is nice but like already mentioned the price is not right :2

Re: New Xikar VX V-Cut
 

Picked up a cheapie V-cutter recently, and find it works well with torpedoes and perfectos. Gives a little more surface area for the draw than a straight cut. Was planning to pick up a Wolf cutter, but may have to wait now for the Xikar to hit the auction sites.

I was never a fan until a friend gifted me the Wolf V-Cutter. That was prob close to 3 years ago if not a little longer. I only first used it when I didn't have another cutter with me, and I fell in love with the cutter not the cut if that makes since. The design of the blade (same on the new Xikar) just cuts the cigar perfect with never any issues. I have never used any other cutter that cuts so easy and clean. So really its not the V-Cut I like but the cutter. The Wolf I have has been used at least 900 to 1000 times and still cuts perfect!

For those worried about the price that is just MSRP, I'm sure you will be able to find them cheaper once they are out. Plus Xikar is for life, any problems send it back for a new one.

I played with one of these at the IPCPR...AWESOME CUTTER...I ordered one immediately!

Re: New Xikar VX V-Cut
 

I'm with you. Love the wolf cutter.
