JerryBaumchen 1,426 #1 March 7, 2007 At the Symposium, Dave DeWolf mentioned a pair of serrated scissors that he said were the Cat's Meow to cut Spectra with. I got a pair and he is right. They come from: Arius-Eickert 2201 Commerce Drive Fremont, OH 43420 419-332-1380 info@arius-eickert.com They are noted as #9162, 7" Winders Shears & the serration is an extra charge. I don't know what they cost; mine were gratis. Jerry Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gene03 0 #2 March 7, 2007 Hell Jerry, I just use a new pair of side cutters. Hold it to the line at an angle for a tapered cut.“The only fool bigger than the person who knows it all is the person who argues with him.

diablopilot 2 #3 March 7, 2007 Paramedic's shears are cheap as hell (I get 'em free) and work wonders. Ever seen how well a Paramedic is able to destroy a jumpsuit and or rig when they are first to an accident?---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are.

sprtdth 0 #6 March 8, 2007 Hey Jerry, I got mine at Home Depot. I think they call them "eletrican sissors". Cost about $6. Mine are made by Heritage and are 5 1/4" OAL. One blade is serrated and the other is smooth, and yea, they cut free hanging spectra like a hot knife thru butter.CRW Skies Frank CRW Diva #58 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TitaniumLegs 8 #7 March 8, 2007 Can they be used to remove the RSL from a Javelin? To beat the come-back peeps to the punch: "Yes, but only if you're a Master Rigger" (>o|-< If you don't believe me, ask me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
