Cigar Accessory Review: Palió Cigar Cutter
E.Z. at Humiblog has an excellent short review up of the Palió Cigar Cutter.
Here’s an excerpt:
“But enough of the technical specs… I’ve used the cutter for two weeks now, and it’s become my cutter of choice.
The thing’s like my right hand now. It’s light weight, sharp, precise, and feels great in hand.”
It is a good look at a good tool, and I recommend both the review and the cutter to you.
From the manufacturer:
Inspired by and based upon the precision and calibration of today’s superior medical devices, Palio has endured the rigors of intense product development. From concept and design to product testing and refinement, Palio has been mechanically engineered to deliver only the most precise cut available in the cigar accessory market today. With a twin-bladed design that uses two reinforced blades made of hardened surgical steel; the Palio can cut up to a 52 ring cigar. If at any point in the life of the cutter, you feel that the cutter has lost its ability to deliver a quality cut (while cutting cigars of course!), you can return it to us, or any Palio dealer for a replacement at no cost.
Palio touts several advantages that their cutter has over others available:
- Ergonomic - finger rest and contour shape
- Handsome - people will ask about it
- Precision Cut - blades aren’t sloppy and don’t fall out with age
- Controlled Cut - be sure how much of the cigar’s cap you remove
- Contoured Cigar Holder - no need for a communal germ pit (ash tray)
- Detent Position - won’t arbitrarily open
- Large Cutter Opening – Handles up to 54 ring cigars
- Remarkably Sharper than leading cutters
Some of those may mean more to you than the others. 
For me, I can vouch for the precision cut and the ability to handle larger ring gauge cigars. This is a very nice little cutter.
You should be able to pick one up for under U.S. $40.00. It is not terribly expensive, but not a bargain basement cutter — then again I don’t want to ruin a good cigar with a bargain basement cutter.
Do you?
Lighters Direct has one of the best online prices I’ve seen on them. You’ll save back the money in a short time if you smoke regularly, not to mention saving the aggravation of poorly cut cigars.

I’ve got one of these myself, and can’t help but echo the review. It’s without a doubt the best cutter I’ve ever had the pleasure to own or use.
