Childrens fiskars work just fine.
Longo reply :
Another vote for boomerang. They are awesome!!
k3bass reply :
Mini craftsman side cutters. Cuts limp braid with ease. If they get dull just exchange them for a new pair.

Another vote for the boomerang snips! They are small, effecient, and are retractable. What else could you ask for? I keep mine on my belt loop, and it is awesome not havin to dig thought my pockets to find my knife every time I need to re-tie
Further North reply :
I'll add another + for the Boomerang - I'e got a dozen sets of 3M scissors on the boat and the Boomerangs have replaced them for everything but wire leaders.
Big C reply :
Go with a lighter. That way if you ever find yourself in a survival situation you can always switch lures.
AdamsEye reply :
I use a few sets of titanium scissors sold in the craft isle of most department stores. They cost about $1.00, are plenty sharp enough, and strong enough to last you a few season no problem. Fiskars and Westcott are two good brands to look for.
WPCfishing reply :
Boom Boom it is, Thx
Darren. reply :
I have two Boomerang snips, and some kids' Fiskars.
Both cut braid well. The Boomerangs are out on the
water with me. They're not 100% perfect, but darn
good for the money.

Cheap, but amazing!
buzzed bait reply :
The best thing i've ever used are the Evolution Gorilla Pliers, but they're pricey (mine were free). Otherwise, the boomerang snips work very well.
WPCfishing reply :
I have Lews Pliers that cut great but, I can't get close enough to the knot easily.
The Boomerang's seem like a good choice. I'm going with them.
Dogmatic reply :
d**n sharp scissors...
blckshirt98 reply :
Boomerang snips are the best line cutters on the planet and it gets big bonus points since it has the retractable cord and you can attach it to a belt clip/keychain caribiner so it's always handy without having to fish through your gear for a cutting tool. One thing though is that it will dull over time so you need to use different parts of the snip until it's time to get a new one. I typically buy a new one at the start of every fishing season, but it's probably my single best investment every year that I have no qualms about.
icatchlittlebass reply :
Forgot my scissors at my house when I went out, just a helpful tip to some of you guys, but the top of a dip can, the bottom edge of it will cut the line for you if you are in a pinch
boostr reply :
I use the Rapala braid shears, and never had a problem with them. They cut pretty good.

i looked at those on TW , most people said they are great for the first couple months then they get dull . i'm telling you , Fiskar scissors last for a long time , still trying to find a decent belt clip for them .

Look for EMT scissor sheath on google, tons of options some under $10.
WPCfishing reply :
I ended up buying The Snip and a Rapala 5" serrated scissors. Got them on eBay.
