braid cutter?
hey guys,
I was just watching real fishing with bob izumi on wfn, and he was advertising a new product from berkeley that burns through braided line and gives you a nice cut like nailclippers with mono. Anyone know what this is called and where I can buy it locally?

I have one, it works as advertised. But if you are limited to how much crap you want to carry around with you. Side cutters can cut more things than just fishing line. The Berkley gadget only does one thing. And I have never had a dead battery in my side cutters.
So I would lean towards the side cutters.

I agree with the scissors!! that is all I use. I find that with sidecutters it is real hard to get the last piece that usually stays on the split ring or the eye of a hook. The scissors are great to take that off.
