Description

The Xikar Multi-Tool Cigar Cutter, MTX is the ultimate tool for cigar smokers and features 5 functions. A great “screwdriver” to easily adjust the flame to your cigar lighter, a cigar poker, a small “screwdriver” to adjust the flame to the lighter, an opener and, of course, a powerful cigar cut thanks to its lightweight, stainless steel and powerful blades.

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
