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

I saw the red one, then decided to buy the red.it's a nice deep dark red with the black blades is a nice color combo. cutter is nice and smooth and sharp. the gear system allows both blades to close simultaneously. That is the issue with the xikar xi cutter and guillotine cutters. they work, but one side will cut while the other does not close in. to me, the XO provides a better even cut. the opening is large enough for any cigar that I'd use. the other thing I like about this and any other Xikar product is their warranty. have a problem or need sharpening, send it in and they will fix it.hard to find better service. I just wish that it came with a sheath, or that they offered it for sale.
