Xikar to ship new Flip Dual cigar cutter

Quality Importers Trading Company® (QI), the leading accessory supplier to the worldwide premium cigar trade, is excited to announce that the versatile XIKAR® Flip Dual Cutter,
which was first launched at the PCA in March, is now shipping four (4) color options, Black, Blue, Gunmetal, and Red and the remaining three (3) colors, Black & Bronze, Bronze, Brushed Chrome will be available in mid-September. This innovative cigar accessory is designed to cater to the diverse preferences of cigar aficionados, offering both a deep V-Cut and a traditional Straight Cut in one sleek and portable design.


The XIKAR® Flip Dual Cigar Cutter incorporates stainless steel blades capable of handling 64-ring gauge cigars with precision. The dual cutting options ensure an optimal depth for both V-Cut and Straight Cut,
providing an ample draw without compromising the cigar cap. The V-Cut design is based on the classic XIKAR® VX2 cutter engineered with an inverted stainless steel blade providing inward pressure to the cap of the cigar during the cut, preventing the cigar cap from expanding and splitting.


The cutter features the Secure-Lock system, a user-friendly spring-loaded release mechanism that enables one-handed operation for added convenience. By applying pressure to both sides and releasing the buttons, the XIKAR® Flip Dual Cutter is easily maneuvered with your thumb and index finger allowing cigar connoisseurs to seamlessly switch between a V-Cut or Straight Cut. Other highlights include the side trigger button complementing color finishes which add style, as well as the textured surface giving the cutter a luxurious feel and a firm grip.


Crafted with an aluminum body, the XIKAR® Flip Dual Cutter is both comfortable to hold and sturdy, measuring 1.79” wide, 0.66” deep, and 3.07” in length (45.5 x 17 x 78 mm). The bottom of the cutter is texturized, providing stability on most surfaces, while the top serves as a cigar rest due to its slight curvature. Consumers will quickly discover that the XIKAR® Flip Dual Cutter is more than just a cutter; it provides a 2-for-1 cutting experience, combining affordable luxury and convenience for any cigar lover.


XIKAR® Flip Dual Cutter is ideal for entertaining this season and gives cigar aficionados a choice of two cutting experiences in one creating a pleasurable smoking environment for those with different preferences at events or gatherings. Backed by the industry-leading XIKAR® lifetime warranty and offered at an MSRP of $84.99, the XIKAR® Flip Dual Cutter provides cigar enthusiasts with a pocket friendly cutter at a wallet-friendly price. Of the seven (7) bold cutters, four (4) colors are shipping now, Black, Blue, Gunmetal, and Red. The Black & Bronze, Bronze, Brushed Chrome color cutters will be available to ship in mid-September.

It sounds like a great tool. at $85, it's a bit more than I'm willing to spend, especially since I have 2 Xikars I need to have repaired

I am with Jason on both price and how they didn't last long. But that sure is a great description, sounds impressive.

The new cutter from DTT (Saka) is $400, for perspective.

I'm just happy that my 24 year old Xikar is soldiering on with the original Solingen blades.

And as long as I don't lose them, Palio for a straight cut.

The fact that they're swapping out the Solingen steel for the cheap Cinese equivalent was why I haven't sent them for repair. One of them is an heirloom of sorts. My girls gave me the redwood handled one for a Father's Day gift.

I bought my dad one of their pocket knives with the mammoth bone handle. He lost it.
