New Xikar VX V-Cut

[Kdub]

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.

The Xikar appears to have the same blade as the Wolf cutter, just in a heavier body. I doubt that you'll find the Xikar going for Wolf prices though, even at auction.

What appears to be a heavier body of the Xikar might be nice though, I have a Wolf and I always felt that the cutter was too flexible and felt "cheap" "light" and "flimsy" in my hand. The cut is great, but just feels like I'm going to break it if I were to use it forcefully.
