BTW, I'm not aware of any other modern, pocketable V-cutters that use the backwards raked blade design like the Wolf & XV where the blade starts at the tip of the head and works inward. Every other one I've seen relies on the traditional "shove a point (usually dull) into the side of the cigar and rip at it in an outward direction".

So, if you want that razor cut, the XV and Wolf are, to the best of my knowledge, the only options.

I have a number of V-cutters; Donatus, Dunhill, some no-name $2 from CI plastic bodied ones, and a Wolf. The Wolf is the only one that makes a clean cut and doesn't crack or tear up the wrapper on the cigar. I don't use V-cutters often, but after just one use of the Wolf, I've never touched any of the others since. It was that good - the others don't even compare.
