just get a small knife, and a pair of shears, that way all bases are covered..put them in 2 different locations so that if you get tangled up and can't reach one you will have some hope of getting the other..

Uncle Pug:Large diver knife strapped to the calf works well for catching kelp and fishing line. Continued finning after this can further secure the kelp or fishing line to your leg.
fdog:"Kelp is crisp". Ha ha! All these years and why haven't I heard this one? It's exactly right! Good one radinator.
Or paramedic shears. These will save your life, and also produce emergency corkscrews from pennies.
All the best, James
Uncle Pug:A small paring knife with the blade scored using a file and then snapped off so that it is only 2" long makes a great knife for things that can be cut with a knife. Keep it in a small case on the belt.
