Dual Hybrid Micro Scissors

A bunch of folks in my online boat group were raving about these cutters so I ordered one to give it a try.I was a little hesitant because the price is so much more than a cheap pair of nail cutters but what the heck, I like cool fishing gadgets and if they work half as well as they claim, I'll be happy.It was originally scheduled for delivery on Monday so I was pretty happy when they delivered it early on Saturday since we were going out fishing on Sunday.When it arrived, I opened the package and put it in my tackle bag so I wouldn't forget it.We got out on the lake on Sunday morning and once we got settled into our first spot we started fishing. It wasn't long until my wife got hung up on a submerged log and it wasn't coming loose....no problem, time to use my new line cutterz.Tried using the scissors first.....um....they won't work.....they won't budge, like there's something keeping me from squeezing the black levers closed. OK, no problem, I'll use the ceramic cutter. I slide the line into the notch and pull it.....nothing. I must be doing something wrong, slide the line into the notch again...still not cutting. I slide the line into the other side of the notch....nope, that doesn't work either.I start looking closely at the ceramic cutter.....there's nothing there.....just the plastic notch, no ceramic blade.I start looking at the black handles for the scissor and I see something white sticking out from the one side....it's the ceramic blade......ugh.... so it appears during assembly, the ceramic blade wasn't installed correctly and was trapped in the scissor mechanism, keeping the scissor from being able to be squeezed together.I tossed them back in my tackle bag and used my old nail clippers.After we got home and got unloaded I pulled the cutterz out along with my small screwdriver set.6 screws removed and as I suspected, the ceramic blade wasn't installed correctly so I put it back where it was supposed to be, screwed everything back together and they seemed to work.The ceramic cutter worked great, I just slide some line into the notch and it cut through it like butter.The scissors are now working but they keep hanging up, they're not releasing all the way. At first I thought I tightened the screws too much so I backed them off a bit....nope, still hanging/not opening fully. Almost like the tension spring for the scissors is getting stuck on something. Tried a little reel oil on the mechanism, still no luck. Possibly got damaged from the ceramic cutter being wedged in there, not sure.I'll keep them on the boat to use as a backup since the ceramic cutter works well.Kind of pricey compared to my nail clippers.I've seen similar products on Amazon and plan on giving them a try as they're lower priced and seemed to have a ton of positive reviews.

I have tried many things for cutting line. This little tool by far the best. I have cut mono all the way to 1100 paracord. The only thing to be careful of, the color you choose. If you wear it on a hat.

They are not all made the same. Bought two pair. One for me and one for my wife. Wife’s pair luckily pretty easy to use without much effort. My pair is the opposite. The Ceramic cutter on back on both are good. The tweezer is a little different story. One pair they are good and work well. The other pair will need some time to break in and smooth out. I do think as they break in they will be good. For the price they should be higher quality and cut smoother. Concept of these is great. I like the clip on the back to fit on a hat or clip onto whatever is needed. Two things I would change. The little black handles to tweeze together make a little bigger so when you go to snip line it is easier. The other is quality control. I ordered two pair. Totally different far as cutting right out of packaging. They do cut braid but for this price should be an easier. Update… sent the one pair back. The replacement pair is great. Bumped up a star for this. Went from 3 star to 4.

Sharp blades. Works as it should.

Small enough to know you got it cus extremely well I am very pleased with this product
