Opinions vary.
I think the basic black Palio is simple and elegant in design.

I think the Xi8 looks cheaper than the Palio, especially when comparing like color/designs. I think it cuts as well if not better though and is about half the price.

I really like my Palio, never had the chance to use a Xikar cutter.

Default Re: Xikar Xi3 or Palio cutter?

I love my Xi3 Titanium Nitrade cutter!!

Its way heavier than the "regular" metal gripped Xikars. I got a heck of deal on it, or I wouldn't have got it. At $90, its a little steep for my blood; but on a deal, yeh why not!?
