Colibri V for me all day every day. Tried them all and for consistency sake the V is the way for me. Also out of all the V's I like the Colibri the best because it is way deeper than even the Xikar. Even on smaller smokes the deep V is fine and on the bigger stuff it makes a world of difference. Also agree that please don't judge a V off of the cheapos, the blade on them is horrible.
