Review on Xikar XO: The Ultimate Red And Black Double Guillotine Cutter For Effortless Cigar Cutting by Cory Jacobson

The best straight cutter on the market in my opinion. The blades are extremely sharp, you get a perfect straight cut every time. Yes it's expensive, but in my opinion worth it. Xikar also offers a lifetime warranty, which is nice peace of mind for an expensive product. I love that both blades move together when you close it, which helps get a great cut. On a traditional guillotine, the pressure you put on each blade usually varies, so the cut has more of a chance to be off. These blades are connected by the gears, so they will meet right in the middle of your cigar. A little bit bulky, but once doesn't bother me.
