Cutting devices

[scuberd]

I was just wondering what people use for cutting devices under water, personally I take a knife and a pair of scissors, I'm taking no chances around this kelp

I carry a couple of knives, hey if it came write down to it I can get pretty animalistic and I would use my teath to get free from a tangle or even to defend myself against attacking marine life.:getsome: :yellow: :sharky:

I have some heavy-duty butcher's shears and a bunch of knives. The shears have small serrations on the blades so that the object being cut does not slip out. Being that I collect several different kinds of knives, it is always a challenge to decide which couple get to go along. The ones left behind can become soooo jealous! I generally go with one larger knife (the proverbial "sharpened prybar") and a smaller fully serrated blade.

I have three tools. Two knives (one on leg, one on sholder of bc), and one pair of scissors (on oppostie shoulder of bc).

wasn't sure how to cast that vote....

A blunt tipped medium sized dive knife on the inside of my left calf, and EMT shears clipped off on a D-ring on my left shoulder strap.

I carry both shears and a knife. If I expect to need to cut straping I will also take a hook knife.

For wood pilings I take the hydraulic chainsaw.
For concrete either the hydraulic saw or the hydraulic impact hammer.

I have a 5" Blue Tang drop point on my calf and some heavy duty EMT shears on my waist. I've needed both so far, and both have served me well

I have a 3 inch Akona knife on my waist belt. Shears in my drysuit pocket.

If I'm diving warm water and a shorty, I put the shears next to the knife on the waist belt.
