[quote=rfenst]Look fo the higher-end titanium Xikar.
I bought one 15 or so years ago and it is still fully intact and sharp as hell.[/quote]

Just don't ever drop it on a hard surface.

LOL...read some info about high-end cutters' lifespans...said to expect them to last about two years...

they're kidding, right? $100+ for a cutter to last only 2 years???

I have a Cuban Crafters stainless double guillotine that I bought 12-13 years ago that is still sharp...it's not considered high-end...I don't use it everyday, preferring the 6 year old Xikar V cutter for some larger RG cigars...

Whistlebritches is old enough he could use that for a Lil’ Whistle nickname….the Lightswitch Mammoth Tusk!

My local actually had this cutter on hand for like 3 months and they told the rep, yeah buddy try another store. This isn’t the market for stuff like that. We’re more pick up trucks, skoal in the wranglers and meth around here. I suppose there are plenty of yuppies, did see an EV Hummer on my way to get right with the Lord and the AFT on lunch.
