    That's good !
    I bought 3 pair of them about two years ago.. One pair has already been sent to the local landfill and another pair is getting close.
    They are as good as I've ever used but they do wear out. Like stated earlier-- they do well much longer on larger braid but soon start leaving a partial strand on small braid.

    These Cuda Micro Scissors go on sale all the time for $3. I haven't found anything better for the price. I have them at home, the shop and the boat and they last longer than you would expect for $3...

    Yeah, I don't know. I have three and they all cut like the day I bought em. I'm in AZ so dropshot is king. Meaning 8-12# Sunline braid. FG and Albertos. Clean cuts no stranding. I love mine.

    This. These are really the only ones I've had luck with continuing to cut braid reliably over the long-haul. I always watch Amazon then buy a few pairs when they go on sale if I'm running low. I've kind of got them laying around everywhere in my shop, and keep several pairs in the boat so they're always handy. The only reason I've ever needed to replace them is that they bounce and I'll occasionally lose them to the lake. Other than that, they hold up and keep cutting like new for a loooong time. Can't beat the price, either!

    I’m a barber and I use middle priced barber shear in my boat. I’ve got 2 years on the set in there now and they’re still sharp as hell.

    I've been happy with the cuda braid shear (not the smaller cutters), but only had them a year or so...

    Tim Holtz Titanium craft scissors from HB work as well as any, they’re cheap, and last For years.
    Tied for 1st would be Boomerang clippers. Same as above.

    Rigrap ceramax ceramic. Not sure they are still available, but I have been using for 5 years or so. Cut braid super easy. Randy Howell used to promote them.

    Bought 3 3" blades from Harbor Freight for a buck apiece. Put them on a small stone and they cut 50lb braid like cotton thread. These are over 5 yrs old.

    I keep both the small and large Cuda scissors in the boat. They are several years old and still cut well.

    Hold the tag end in your teeth, cut with a sharp pocket knife, don't need no stinking fancy braid cutters.
