Like a lott folks, I've found that nail clippers won't cut braided line. So I bought a pair of Berkley scissors that was supposed to the thing for braided line. They sorta work but not really.

Anybody got any secret to cutting braided line easy?

Thanks.

I pull it tight and cut it with my pocket knife with no problems!

I use scissors my wife had laying around. They seem cheap but work well. I used to use my pocket knife that had a little notch for cutting stuff like that. It was also a cheap pocket knife... but I lost it....

The ring knives are really nice and cut it easily, the trick to cutting braid is tension. or a pair of tight snips. They make braid specific scissors, but I use those little clipper deals specific for fishing.

The Rapala scissors do a great job for me. Designed for braid ...I think they're called "Super Line Scissors"
