Luxe of the Day: XIKAR Xi3 Havana Cigar Cutter

Here at GLuxe, we're avid cigar smokers. And as avid cigars smokers, we have tons of cigar cutters lying around the pad. Most, unfortunately, are of the cheapo variety that we received for free either from cigar events or as part of our frequent cigar orders. As jet-setters, what we should be using to cut our La Aurora 1495 cigars is a XIKAR Xi3 Havana cigar cutter.

Each Xi3 is customized by hand. The artist fits a handle made of French maple wood to the Xi3 cutter then hand paints the handles in either green, yellow, red, blue or black. Once the handle is painted, he carefully adds pieces of actual cigar brands to the handle then preserves the layout forever in several layers of clear varnish. Once sanded and polished, the final work of art is ready to cut the finest cigars in the world.
