Super User NYWayfarer Posted August 12, 2023 Super User Posted August 12, 2023 The scissors on my Gerber handle almost anything. I have a backup pair of cuda scissors for braid. Quote
Super User LrgmouthShad Posted August 12, 2023 Super User Posted August 12, 2023 A pair of Walmart titanium kitchen scissors is the best I’ve ever used, lol 1 Quote
thediscochef Posted August 12, 2023 Posted August 12, 2023 I have like 4 of these and I like them pretty good 1 Quote
RealtreeByGod Posted August 12, 2023 Posted August 12, 2023 Between the 5 different brands of scissors I've had, lost, or not used in favor of whatever knife or multitool is in my pocket, FishUSA's were the best. https://www.fishusa.com/FishUSA-Premium-Braid-Scissors/ Quote
Super User T-Billy Posted August 12, 2023 Super User Posted August 12, 2023 The Rapala scissors have worked well for me also. Price is right and available at my local wally world. 1 Quote
papajoe222 Posted August 13, 2023 Posted August 13, 2023 I use a pair of side cutter pliers. They cut braid cleanly and double as hook cutters for those times you need to, you know, cut the end of a hook off for some reason. Quote
Alex from GA Posted August 13, 2023 Posted August 13, 2023 I use my teeth for 12lb and under fluoro and mono and my Leatherman for braid. Quote
MAN Posted August 16, 2023 Posted August 16, 2023 Put me in the Cuda braided line scissors group. I also have some little nippers that work great as well. Quote
Super User Bankc Posted August 16, 2023 Super User Posted August 16, 2023 Knife. Hold the tag end and knot in one hand and slide the knife through the loop between the two. Even a fairly dull knife will cut braid well. Scissors only tend to work when sharp, and they're a lot more difficult to sharpen. Especially small ones. 1 Quote
Crow Horse Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 Cuda, both small & large for the win..... 1 Quote

After years of bouncing between different brands, I found these to be the best. Quote
GRiver Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 @MN Fisher, @JacobB006 my Cudas came in Friday. 1 Quote
Maggiesmaster Posted August 21, 2023 Posted August 21, 2023 I’ve used the Rapala braided line scissors with success; however they’re black & get lost in the boat. Solved that problem by getting a can of fluorescent Orange spray paint & painting the handles of my scissors & pliers. Works well. Quote
WaterOtter Posted August 21, 2023 Posted August 21, 2023 Victorinox classic or rambler. I use them a million times a day. They are easy to always have in your pocket, and I buy half a dozen at a time from ebay sellers who buy confiscated knives by the pound from the TSA. Quote
