    My favorite accessery is my Carbon Fiber Xikar tear drop cutter everyone should have one it was worth every penny. My man o war edition stinky ashytray is probally my second favorite def go out and buy one for 25 bucks best ashtray hands down especially for outside. Also I like my xikar travel ash can for the shooting range.

    Is a tear drop cutter similar to a V-Cutter? I been looking for a desktop V-Cutter and everything seems to be either really cheap or really expensive.

    My favorite is my vector excaliber lighter! It doesn't eat fuel to bad for a dual torch and has a built in cutter for those in a pinch moments.

    My Cuban Crafters Perfect Cut and a cheap-aZZ Firebird single torch lighter. Not to mention my flowerpot drip tray I use for an ashtray.

    By far my favorite accessory is my Xikar MTX folding scissor. Puts the teardrop cutter to shame.
  • Cazzie13Cazzie13 Posts: 48
    Scissor looks to confusing me I'll either slice a finger or ruin a cigar don't like either option too much.
  • j0z3rj0z3r Posts: 9,403 ✭✭
    I had similar thoughts regarding scissors, but I've never had a better cut than my scissors make. To each his own though, I just really like them.

    My cheap, beat up Ronson lighter that Leonard gave me like 2 years ago. Thing's a tank.

    Xikar scissors, so easy EVEN I can use them. Seriously, probably the best cutter I have used. Very versatile and gives a great cut. In fact, I don't even "cut" anymore, I just run the scissors around the cap and pop it off.

    Ashtray will change when I get off my butt and send you a nice package.

    Maybe I will give it a shot, I seen the scissors on the sprinter a few times. If you guys see me posting and missing a few letters just assume I bought the scissor and lost a finger.

    My 5 ct herfador that Todd aka mailbox bully aka bandyt09 gave me is my most favorite thing. I take it everywhere.

    No it is there Xi series of cutters. They have a a v-cutter that works very well but it is not a desktop. I have a xikar multi tool also that I use for specific uses but it is like comparing a flash light to the sun when you complare it to a teardrop. My carbon fiber teardrop is a lot sharper and cuts a lot easier than my scissors. I keep my multi tool in a cigar.com match box in my dvd bag so I always have it but it more secondary cutter in case I need to cut another cigar or touch up the first one. I say the x series of cutters by xikar are some of the sharpest cuttes I've ever used.

    Thanks for the info Gaetano, i seriously need to upgrade my cutters, still using the cheap ones they give you when you buy a few cigars at the store, i just need to buy one that has lojack installed because i lose everything.

    My Room 101 black cigar ashtray and my colibri triple flame torch lighter, that unfortunately is dying as it is having trouble with what I believe is the flint creating a spark, but bought it on a fire sale for like 15 bucks, so I can't be that mad.

    I had two favorite cigar smoking accessories. For one night only, unfortunately.

    Haven't seen them on sprinter sale, going to have to keep it open all day i guess...going to be hard to be that.

    I recommend vectron fluid it is the best I have ever used. Since I started all my lighters have ran perfect. Is it a flint lighter? If so you can change it. If it is the ignition system compressed air may help and vectron fluid.

    Gaetano7890, Do U have a picture of the Cutter, I would like to purchase one, just what I need sounds awesome
  • HaysHays Posts: 2,337 ✭✭✭
    I have two, for different reasons. I really love my Xikar Flintfire II lighter - the thing is gorgeous, and just the right size for my big 'ol hands.

    The other is my Xikar Founder's cutter I got when I became one of the very first founding members of my lounge - a place that has now become pretty much THE dominating venue in the area... So that's kinda cool. :-)

    I need a suggestion for a good lighter...my freebie RP is crapping out. For under $50.. I know the butane makes a difference. I think I clogged the other with cheap stuff not planning on using that with a new lighter.BTW I have the above cutter, works fantastic.
