Review: Best fishing line cutters out there!!!! - I believe these are the best fishing nippers out there. With the built in "carabiner" you can hook them pretty much anywhere making them convenient vs looking around for scissors or pulling pliers out of some kind of holster. I have noticed over time they seem to dull a bit after cutting braided line a lot, but it takes a while. I will continue to buy and recommend this product. Review: Good tool, I would recommend the longer blade version. - These are handy little snips, pretty well made but they feel a little light to me. I bought the longer blade version and like them alot better. No issues with cuttingfifty pound braid and mono. Tried some heavier braid with these saltwater heavy snips and it easily cut it but not cleanly. I don't have much call to cut heavier than fifty pound test , if I had to choose one I would definitelyget the long blade version, much easier to use and I am sure it would cut higher than fifty poundbraid. ## Features - Snip the fishing line and let it go, the built-in 30" tether retracts back into place until you need it again - Clip it to your hip or vest with the Carabineer so it's always handy and never lost - Cuts clean and precise through 150 lb. braid and 250 lb. mono and fluoric fishing lines - High Quality 420 Stainless steel serrated cutters are corrosion resistant - IMPORTANT: Rinse with freshwater after each use. Occasionally, treat your SNIP with an anti-rust spray, such as WD40 or Bo shield T9. Wipe with cloth and air dry. This will help prevent spotting on Stainless Steel blades and screws. - Sport type: Kayaking ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00F5EJWSW | | Best Sellers Rank | #11,788 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #9 in Nippers & Snips | | Blade Edge | Serrated | | Blade Material | Stainless Steel | | Blade Type | Serrated | | Brand Name | BOOMERANG TOOL COMPANY | | Care instructions | Hand Wash Only | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 297 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00852419002058 | | Handle Material | Stainless Steel | | Included Components | Big SNIP Salty Dog | | Item Length | 36 Inches | | Item Type Name | fixed blade,hunting knife,outdoor,camping | | Item Weight | 1.44 ounces | | Manufacturer | West Coast Chain Mfg.

My pair does not say where they are made. That's all I know. **Q: Are the blades replaceable?** A: Great question. Replacement blades are not currently available for the Snips series. **Q: Just purchased. Can't get the tether to retract. Do I return it?** A: I would return it. Mine has operated flawlessly. This will last a lifetime so don’t chance problems. **Q: can you recommend a blade that will cut tool steel?** A: Your question is not in the context of this tool which only cleanly cuts braided fishing line. Braided fishing line is NOT made of metal. I don not know of any 'blade that will cut tool steel.' It has to be some kind of cutting wheel that is made of carbide or imbedded with industrial diamond dust. Therefore I cannot answer your question directly ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best fishing line cutters out there!!!! *by J***2 on March 4, 2026* I believe these are the best fishing nippers out there.
