Palio Concerns -

Now, I'm not hard on cutters by any means, but I have to question the durability of these cutters. It's a pain in the a3$#SSS to have to send this back even though the warranty is great and I know it will be covered. I'm just lazy, I know, and I will do it. My question is have others experienced problems with these cutters or am I just "bad luck". Maybe it's user error, I don't know. Thanks. Steve

I've had 2 XiKar's just stop working... haven't even bothered sending the second back yet (I'm lazy too). The Palios, on the other hand, have never had any problems.

That's just my experience, though... kinda like lighters. Some people say Ronson Jetlites suck, I've had mine for about 4 years and never had a problem. Luck of the draw, I suppose...

No experience on the palios, but ive picked up 3 Ronson's.... one works, one half works, ones a POS that never worked.

How does a Xikar cutter just "stop working"?
