Review on Xikar Xi1 Blue Double Guillotine Cigar Cutter With 440C Stainless Steel Blades, Rockwell HRC 57 Rating, Suitable For 54-60 Ring Gauge Cigars by John Blanco

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good, solid cutter for my opinion

This cutter performs very well. Xikar manufactures excellent quality products. This is a cutter that will last you for years, if one take care of it and keeps track of it. Blades are sharp and I like how the blades lock into place after you are done cutting the cigar. Blades are protected from any damage inside the shell of the cutter. Cutter is made of good, solid grade metal that again, will last if it is taken care of. I definitely recommend the purchase of this product and any product of Xikar's line if you are interested in pipe or cigar smoking.

Pros
  • My husband loves this cutter. It works great,
Cons
  • The Rockwell HRC 57 rating may not be high enough for serious cigar enthusiasts, who may prefer a blade with a higher hardness rating for sharper, cleaner cuts
