Re: Xikar X8 Carbon Fiber Cutter
Got mine a few days ago and used it last night and had a few others at the herf test it out. It definitely looks and feels cheaper than a Palio and even compared to the Xi I used to have. But, the cut was fantastic, actually smoother than Palio's I've used, although those Palio's are years old compared to the first cut here. Definitely worth the $15 I paid and I'd have a hard time deciding between the cheapest Palio or this for the price difference.

Re: Xikar X8 Carbon Fiber Cutter
I bought a Palio about 2 months ago and it came apart; just separated while pulling it open. I know it's under warranty and just sent it back. I really loved that while it worked! Bought the X8 with this great deal and it's not as heavy but cuts great, especially the larger ring cigars. My wife doesn't understand my hobby at all and really doesn't understand why I need all the tools. Oh well, I don't understand why she needs so many dam#$# nick-nacks.

Re: Xikar X8 Carbon Fiber Cutter
I received mine a couple days ago. It is nice and light and cuts great. I have 2 other XIKAR's and really like all of them. I do want a Palio and will get 1 soon, just to have.

Re: Xikar X8 Carbon Fiber Cutter
Mine made it Friday. It really is very light, maybe to light weight. I have only used it once and it worked great. Will be a back up and used for torps or such, otherwise using my XV V-cutter.

Re: Xikar X8 Carbon Fiber Cutter
I've been using mine for a week now. Do I like it better then my Palio? No, but as of right now I like it as much as my Palio. Palio and Xikar make great cigar products with warranties and customer service second to none, so you really can't lose which ever cutter you choose. If it can stay sharp for over 6 years like my first Palio, then I may like it better, only time will tell.

Re: Xikar X8 Carbon Fiber Cutter
I like seeing them side by side like that, man if you are into large RG cigars it is clear which one will be better! Even though I'm not a big RG smoker I still went with the new Xikar, you just can't beat that price.
