Clean, either of these cutters should last more than a lifetime, but dirty, neither will do the job satisfactorily.

From your mouth to everyones ears! We have a "Use & Care" section on the Palio website addressing this very thing.

We at BOTL, LLC offer the same exact thing and in fact have personally called B&M's to make sure that they knew a Palio customer was going to be coming in and that they were to swap out that persons cutter no questions asked. Once we even had a person who was on vacation go into a shop near where they were staying and made sure to send the version of their cutter to the store, so it was waiting for them.
Lastly, the question in the original post is often asked and to be honest most of the time I see responses that generally say they prefer xikar mostly due to aesthetics.
Though we would never sacrifice any part of what the Palio cutter does for some aesthetic value...
A little teaser for the folks as to what we're working on, thank you all for your support!
