Cutters are great. Lighter are beautiful and well finished.
My lighters have failed over and over with multiple replacements. The warranty responds then sends you a defective lighters until you give up. Assume somewhere in the past, the company found a low-cost supplier with no quality control in the reliability testing. Found more reliable lighters for $8.00 at a smoke shop.

Stay away from Xicar lighters
Stay away from Xicar lighters! They’re expensive and they don’t last. Worse yet the lifetime warranty is a joke. They have no customer service and no intention of honoring the warranty. The reviews calling them a scam are all true.

Don't waste your time on these lighters
My lifetimeXIKAR warranty lighter has spent more time going back and forth for warranty than I've used the stupid thing.
I'll never pay a wooden nickel for one of those lighters. The electronic ignition modules go bad, and the sad part is they don't care. If they did they wouldn't have the problem. Don't waste yourt time or money on these pieces of junk.

Horrible.
Attempted to buy a lighter from them in a certain material, order went through, was charged, received order confirmation. Few days later I received a confirmation of shipment, but no tracking information. Confirmation mentioned I would receive it at some point but should expect delivery between the end of September or early October. Few days after expected delivery I reach out to them asking if there's tracking info, received response saying that the lighter I ordered was out of stock but they would be willing to send another lighter in a different color, which I accepted. Once again shipment notice would come at some point, but never did. I reached out again and asked them at this point to just refund my purchase, which they said they would do. A week later, I haven't received my refund. I reached out again and let them know I would just dispute the charge to get my money back. Received a response saying something along the lines of "that's weird, if you haven't disputed the charge yet, I will have our accounting department refund you immediately." Yeah, okay. Bank took care of my refund before they even responded.

TERRIBLE SCAMMERS
TERRIBLE SCAMMERS, sorry to have to give 1star to comment. Sent for and paid for a mini chainsaw in May2022. Received a shower cap a month later. Immediately reached and was strung along for 6 months (even though they said they reshipped the chainsaw FIVE (5) more times. The entire time trying to negotiate with me to change my complaint with the BBB or to refund me a % less...DONT BUY ANYTHING from these crooks.
