Default Re: Xikar or Palio?

I believe Palio makes a good cutter but I have refused to use them since I dropped a slightly open one and tried to catch it and ended up shaving the pad of one of my fingers off. (Lesson learned, let that thing hit the ground)

I also have a good friend who managed to get me a personalized Xikar lighter/cutter set with my name laser engraved on it.

Believe it or not though... I most often end up using my fingernail. Ever since this old Dominican roller showed me how, I actually find it is the best method for keeping the cap intact throughout smoking.

As for the Palio vs. Xikar debate... both products are equally high quality imo...

Xikar has cooler looking product though... and more variety.
