    I have been using the Bubba snippets, so far they cut clean and come with a retractable lanyard.

    Been using a pair of gander mountain aluminum pliers with the titanium cutters for about 12 years now and they still cut great. Bought replacement cutter parts incase it starts to get dull but hasn’t gotten to that point of need yet

    The Pitbull brand will get dull if you cut a lot of mono fishing line with them. The mono gets in the little groves and dulls them.

    I've had these since Jan 2022 and bought another pair to have in case these get lost. These will still cut braid clean without having to put any tension on it. Well worth the $22 bucks

    I buy the ones at walmart for less than 4 bucks. yah they get dull after a while but I am in there once a week so if I have to buy a pair every couple years so be it. They are just scissors for christsake. Even dull ones cut if you put tension on the line.

    The Bubba snippets and the Bubba scissors have been great so far.

    My thought is any of them with the serrated blades on both sides, the serrations will help grab the fibers and make a cleaner cut as opposed to being able to slide on the edge. Just from what I have personally noticed.

    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 are the best I've ever tried. Like stated, they do wear out. Mine lasted a couple years but they were very well used . PS don't use them to cut anything else but fishing line. I just bought a couple more pairs.

    I’ve had great service out a pair of Berkley Braid Cutters. They still cut well even on braid with no tension on it.

    I just use a small kobalt utility knife. Change the blades when they get dull. Problem solved.

    Cuda L braid shears here. Going on 4 years of heavy use and still cut loose braid with ease. Cuts flouro and mono without issue as well, no dulling from them either. Pretty much everyone I know switched over to them. Hear the pit bulls are nice as well.

    They all get dull quickly if you cut anything besides braid and your rub them against the hook eye when you cut. I carry a regular pair of all purpose scissors for cutting off knots and removing braid from the hook eye. I also have a pair of braid knot tag end scissors that I only use to cut the tag end from a freshly tied knot. My Champion console tool holder holds four tools, so it's no big deal having two pairs of scissors for different purposes. I've had expensive and cheap braid scissors and the cheap ones last quite a while when you don't cut anything other than the tag ends of knots.

    I’ll do like I’ve done the past 30 yrs with braid and the many years prior with mono. A good sharp pocket knife.
