I use a cutter similar to Leader's Kwik-cut mainline cutter, but I found it at Lowes @ $7.99 rather than $19+. I also bought a compound action one from lowes that I do not like, it is too complicated to use, to open it you mush hold 2 different releases at the same time and then pull the handles apart. Once you get it open the ratcheting action is easier but I seldom use it, especially on 3/4-1.25 sizes. I do sometimes use it on 1.5" because of the ratcheting action.

do you know what he one from lowes was called? im onl using 3/4" so it should work.
