Description

Xikar’s Executive II lighter is targeted at those looking for quality, functional and sophisticated design. Changes in design enhance the classic model both functionally and visually. By placing the push button in the middle of the lighter body, the chances of burning have been minimized. With gentle pressure you now have a strong flame ideal to light your cigar. It now has a larger flame adjustment wheel to facilitate the process and has a “window” to track the rest of the gas.

Available in 6 colors (Black, Silver, Pearl, Red, Blue and Graphite)

For safety reasons, lighters in their packaging do not contain butane.

We recommend using a good quality butane such as Xikar Butane: XIKAR Purofine Butane for Lighters 250ml

The lighter contains gas under pressure, handle it with care. Keep the lighter away from the face when turning on or setting the flame. Keep out of reach of children.

The history of Xikar begins in 1994 in Kansas. Kurt Van Keppel, (now president of Xikar) who wanted to buy a good cigar cutter, found many of the cheap models and high-end models with low performance. So he started with Scott Almsberger to design a more ergonomic handpiece. The result was the Xi cutter, which they built for the first time in their garages and is now the market leader.

XIKAR comes from the word sikar, which is said to be the first Spanish spelling of the word Taino for the cigar. The Tahn were the native populations of Spain and Cuba, where Columbus landed for the first time when he discovered the New World and smoke with him. We changed S to an X (representing 2 blades) and we had X cut the i, like a cutter that cuts a cigar!

Today, the company produces a complete range of cigar products such as lighters, travel humidors, ashtrays, cigar cases, humidifiers, hygrometers and so on.
