...bar none. Better then the 3 blade, the guillotines or the punch. Smooth, no sticking and it does not pinch the cigar. I will carry the bullet punch but the 2 blade cutter is all I will use at home from now on.

If that is a no name 2 buck cheap one, I have the same thing. Works fine, no complaints.

That 3 blade monstrosity looks ridiculous lol but I guess more blades has some benefit by piercing the wrapper in more places at once...

I've thought about the xikar scissors

I like a good pair of scissors as you can use them to be artistic with your cut...you can tailor your cut to suit you and I use to make the straight cut and then trim around the edge making it so smooth that it was a pleasure to smoke. Longevity is where I have my doubts with any cutter and that is where I start my research...how is it made, warranty and who makes it. I know that Xikar is one of those places that will warranty a product forever so I use mostly Xikar products or others that have a lifetime guarantee.

They are a great additions but I have found they work the best for smaller ring cigars and torpedo's. They are great for travel though.Lee.mcglynn:I've thought about the xikar scissors -
JD. have you tried the xikar teardrop cutters? That's my "best" cutter. I've been really pleased with mine. I've got a few Colibri double-guillotine cutters and a few plastic double-guillotine and single-guillotine cutters too and the xikar puts them all to terrible shame. Plus it's pocket sized. When we get together for regional mini herf I'll be sure and get you try it if you haven't tried one of these.

Looking forward to it.
