Looking for the 'Ronson Jetlite' of Cutters

[taltos]

I have found that most of the cheap ones work well for a little while but dull quickly. If you think about it, buying eight of the $4.95 el cheapos will cover the cost of the more expensive cutters that come with a lifetime repair or replacement guarantee. I prefer to only spend my money once but I also am not prone to losing things. That could well be a factor.

Pure wisdom here,,,,I bought enough cheapos over the years and finally bought 3 great cutters,,,Xikar for a straight cut and for a V Cut I bought the BostonCutter which cost me $110 10 years ago,,,but this thing still cuts like it is brand new so I figure I got my moneys worth. The third cutter is a Palio,,,all three of them are great.

Randy, if you are also looking for a v cutter, I agree with the Boston Cutter but there are other good alternatives besides the plastic cheapies. I bought a metal and wood one from www.bestcigarprices.com for something like $20 plus shipping. Since they are located in upstate New York, you would have to pay sales tax also. The advantage to this one is that it is pocket sized.
