The XIKAR® XI-120 closed back has several advantages, it will allow the user to cut off a precise amount of the cap, and will not damage the cigar. The backplate will catch the tobacco trimmings, which can be disposed of by pulling down the trigger button, providing a clean, hassle-free experience

The XI-120 is constructed of an aluminum body, comfortable in the hand, small and portable, weighing 2.9 ounces with dimensions of 1.75" wide x 3" tall x a depth of .25". Contributing to the cutter's efficiency is the double guillotine patented design featuring stainless steel blades that can cut up to 60-ring gauge cigars. The blades are released by a spring-loaded mechanism, activated by the trigger button.
