Xiker lighters

tshawtshaw Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 178
Has anybody had an experience with a xiker lighter? I am interested in getting the exII specifically and wonder if anyone has use this lighter or any xiker lighters and what their experiences were. I know that their cutters are wonderful and am hoping their lighters follow suit.

    First its Xikar(pronounced Ziii-car) and no need to contemplate it. Unconditional lifetime warranty, I just had to send mine off to be repaired replaced/but thats after two years of abuse and I mean abuse! It costs nothing except the shipping of the lighter to them to get it repaired/replaced. If it hadn't been for my local B&M blowing out Colibri's for $10 I would have never bought anything but Xikars ever again. I bought one of the $10 Colibri's to get me through until my Xikar is returned.

    I got a Xikar about 3 months ago and it's all i use now. I've had no problems with it lighting; even though i've dropped it plenty of times on my concrete/paver patio when messing around with. In addition to the lifetime warranty, i liked they sent out a leather pouch for it as well.

    I want to get the triple flame but I can't justify it now. I have 4 colibri lighters. One dual flame with apunch that barely works, one that I use all the time and two more that are just sitting waiting for this one to die.

    To throw my hat into the ring here, I use a Xikar Element, which is a fantastic little piece that I abuse the hell out of. Additionally, invest in a cutter; I have a Xi2, and I wont use anything else now. Great company.

    Ah, and they make great cigars as well; finally had the Defiance a few nights ago and it was a great little stick.

    Yeah Beta' the Defiance really surprised the heck outta me ...I had my first one a couple weeks back...it had been resting about 4-5 months and was really quite flavorable ...

    xmacro send that Xikar back! Those executives are excellent lighters, Xikar will fix it or replace it and you'll love it.

    Yea i have one of their bullet punch's and love it i am planning on getting a cutter i have heard great things, ordered a plain old ex today and should get it tuesday hopefully. I want to try the defiance so bad but they dont have it in b&m's near more or on cigar.com. Did anyone find them online anywhere? PM me if so, im skeptical about ordering from new sites so i wanna do it from somewhere trustworthy and fast i.e. ccom
