bigpoppabass Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 (edited) I noticed that i have purchased and used at least 4 of these line cutters in the past year and a half. They r out of the box awesome for cutting braid. But they dont hold up and keep that edge for long especially if you fish gunk or use scents. Giant berkeley fingernail pliers sold at walmart are a much better bet. I have sets in bboat that have not rusted and are reliable at night.

Az_urban_swimbaiter Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 Mine were great out of box but within 5 weeks are very dull . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerrystowing Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 I have one one my bass boat I've used for 3 years now but I never use braid without a leader of 80 yards or so so it's perfect for cutting Mono & Flou Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGhost Posted January 1, 2016 Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 $5 (w shipping) braid cutters/split ring pliers on amazon. Have held up about 8 months so far of almost daily use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blckshirt98 Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 I use the Boomerang Snip and it's my favorite accessory. I keep it attached to a belt loop on my fishing pants via a small carabiner and the convenience of having a retractable line snip handy like that makes a big difference for me and my time on the water. It does dull out after a lot of use so I buy a new one at the start of every season in the Spring. It's easily still my best investment every year.

dominator Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 I love mine. I seem to wear out the rectractor before they stop cutting. Like what bigpoppa said, there is a bigger model now. Its a beast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
