FAQs
Can these scissors cut through wire leaders?
No, these are designed for line management such as braid and monofilament. Cutting wire will damage the blade edges.
How long are the scissors when folded?
The scissors fold down significantly from their 9.5cm operational length, making them roughly the size of a standard pocket knife.
Will these rust in saltwater?
While made of stainless steel, they are not impervious to rust. Always rinse with fresh water and dry thoroughly after saltwater exposure.
What is the weight of the scissors?
They weigh only 17.5 grams, making them virtually unnoticeable in a vest or tackle bag.
Are the blades replaceable?
No, the blades are fixed components of the folding mechanism.
Troubleshooting
The scissors feel stiff when opening or closing.
Clean the hinge area with a soft brush to remove sand or salt debris, then apply a drop of light lubricant.
The blades are struggling to cut braid cleanly.
Check the serrated section for debris or gummy residue from lures; clean with a damp cloth and ensure the blades are fully aligned.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
There is no complex setup required for these scissors; simply unfold them to expose the blades and lock them into position. To maintain performance, rinse the scissors with fresh water after every fishing session, especially if used in a saltwater environment.
Periodically apply a drop of light machine oil or reel oil to the pivot point to ensure the folding mechanism remains smooth. Always ensure the blades are completely dry before folding them shut for long-term storage to prevent moisture from becoming trapped in the handle housing.
