Are all Xikar teardrop cutters basically the same?

Except for the outward appearances, as far as I can tell all the xikar teardrop cutters all have the same blades and function in the same manner. Is this correct?

I believe all of the blades are the same, the difference is just in the material/design of the handles.

To the best of my knowledge.

The Xi3 series (rosewood, zebrawood etc) have a different cutting blade. If you have both (I do) you would notice the bevel leading to the edge of the blade is smoother and more precise on the Xi3 series. This may have changed recently. Mine are both 2 years old. The Xi3 does cut sharper and cleaner.
