Cutting Braid

Featured Replies

Boomerang snips are the best line cutters on the planet and it gets big bonus points since it has the retractable cord and you can attach it to a belt clip/keychain caribiner so it's always handy without having to fish through your gear for a cutting tool.  One thing though is that it will dull over time so you need to use different parts of the snip until it's time to get a new one.  I typically buy a new one at the start of every fishing season, but it's probably my single best investment every year that I have no qualms about.

 

Can I have your old pairs?

Forgot my scissors at my house when I went out, just a helpful tip to some of you guys, but the top of a dip can, the bottom edge of it will cut the line for you if you are in a pinch

Pun intended?

i looked at those on TW , most people said they are great for the first couple months then they get dull . i'm telling you , Fiskar scissors last for a long time , still trying to find a decent belt clip for them .

Look for EMT scissor sheath on google, tons of options some under $10.

I ended up buying The Snip and a Rapala 5" serrated scissors. Got them on eBay.
