I wish Palio's didn't Look so Cheap

Savor the Stick · 03-16-2009, 12:47 AM

I have 2 Palio's. Don't care for them myself. There does seem to be a learning curve to using them correctly. I had a Cuban Crafter perfection cutter and still find myself reaching for that one first.

Palio is a really good cutter a lot of B/SOTL reach for them first.

Like what you use, use what you like.

Just my worth.

Peace

I like my Palio. I think it looks simple, but I like that about it. Beautiful simplicity...why screw it up?

I love my Palio, never had an issue with it. It will be the only cutter I ever use.

I don't think they look cheap, but they do feel cheap to me. Cuts fine. I use something else. To each his own.

Good grief! What learning curve? It's a CUTTER! Also, I don't know how a cutter gets sticky unless one cuts pixie sticks with it. Mine is a workhorse and never lets me down.

Well, I don't know about you, but I put down cold hard cash at my local community college for a weekend seminar titled, "how to clip your stick and not mangle your thingie". Worth every penny.

Naps allow your cigars to breath and adjust to the proper cutting temperature

Cutting tempature is especially important when using a Palio cutter, found that info on page 18 of the owners manual

Hey us young guys arent as "old and wise" as you... its not our fault that youre old enough to remember when the first cigar was rolled!

You're not supposed to read the other eight languages, just the english.
