Xikar Xi2 Teardrop Cigar Cutter - 60 Gauge

The Xi series is the cutter most people picture when they picture a Xikar, and the teardrop shape is why. The patented pear-shaped body sits in the palm instead of pinched between fingertips, which means you can cut confidently rather than hesitantly. A hesitant cut is what tears wrappers.

The blades are 440C stainless rated to Rockwell C 57, which is the same hardness range as a good pocket knife, and they close in a double guillotine action from both sides at once for a square cut rather than a wedge. The bowl is sized at 54 ring gauge and handles cigars up to 60. If you mostly smoke gordos above that, look at the Xi80 instead. Choose lapis blue or noir black over the durable composite body.
