    Boomerang Tool snips. Better than scissors because they hold their edge.

    Believe it or not the $1.89 Fiskar craft scissors work great and hold an edge. It's a rod builders tip I saw on line and it works.

I finally got one of these for this year. Hope its as good as it's talked up.  Other than that, I use the BPS scissors. Cheap and they work.

Benchmade pocket knife.

Nice ... now I just need to sneak into my 6 year olds room and take her scissors.  Daddy needs them.   :hahaha-024:

Boomerang Snips, got 2 of 'em, love 'em.

 

Also find that kids scissors at Walmart work well, too.

Yep.....

The cheap KVD split ring and braid cutter from walmart works well.

I use the Fiskars scissors the kids use in school.  Cheap and small profile.

... and they come in so many colors!  :)

 

Next time I am in Wally World I may need to pick up one.  :)

I use my pocket knife. Those scissors sound interesting.

Kershaw 1840CKT. Rule #9 definitely applies, especially in fishing!

I now have a pair of boomerang snips, but before I just used sharp finger nail clippers.

Especially if you go fishing on a Sunday. You need to be able to cut your line if you catch the devil

I use P-line Split ring pliers. The line cutter on those bad boys are awesome!

fingernail clippers. Have not had an issue in many years doing this.

Never found anything better, not only is fast but puts a "bead" on the end, an aid in reducing pull thru.

Put off buying one because of the price...What a mistake, this tool is worth every penny just by the way it cuts braid.

You won't be disappointed.  I was skeptical at first.  I clip mine on a belt loop to have it handy when needed.
