Yes it is. I actually own 2 of them (Executive and Executive 2). Both have the same exact finish and paint. One I carry in my pockets and is barely black anymore, that's how much it is scratched, but I don't much care or I'd send it back and they'd refinish it or send me a new one no questions asked. The other one I use only at home and care for a little more and, after a couple of years it's still like new. I do keep it in the box it came when not using it and I don't use it that often as I have lighters in many places. But they both function perfectly.
And that cutter is just amazing as far as I'm concerned. Blades do need to be cleaned once in a while for continued good service, at least that's my experience with them but it's true of every cutter. I use isopropyl alcohol to clean the blades.
Head over to Xikar's website and register your products. They will send you leather sleeves made for each device to keep them protected. Another good thing about their warranty is if the paint gets scratched or worn out they will replace it under warranty at any time.
I use this Xikar case that holds my lighter and cutter which keeps them safe too. The first one is the one I am currently using which is going to get retired soon because I have a brand new backup waiting to get used.
