Review on Xikar XO Dual Blade Guillotine Cutter For Cigars, With Stainless Steel Blades, 64 RG And Stylish Phantom Redwood Design by Erick Roby

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice Cutter, But a Little Awkward

I love Xikar products and have had their classic teardrop-shaped cutter for years. This was a splurge buy for fathers day to take to Las Vegas on a trip. It is heavy-duty and should last for a long time with nice sharp blades to give a clean cut. I can't say I like it better than my Xi1 cutter though, as it is actually a little more awkward to cut my cigars. The XO also doesn't do any better than my cheaper double guillotine cutters, so it will probably be added to the collection rather than becoming a favorite. Feels a little thick for what I thought it would be, as I was expecting it to be closer to the thickness of the Xi1.

Pros
  • Used it many times before I finally bought one.. Glad I did
Cons
  • May be more difficult to clean than other cutter designs
