Picked up a cool new tool recently: Eezycut Trilobite...

[hypertech]

There was a lot of cutting in that video, but......

There was no demonstration of it NOT cutting a hose or a finger. That's an important feature to me.

I have heard nothing but rave reviews from the folks I know that have these.

Let's be careful out there, folks!

EEZYCUT FAIL!

So what's the big deal. Any knife or scissors will cut those ropes. It's useless as a prying instrument, and for cutting wire scissors with a notch are probably the best.

Yup, which is why I carry three cutting tools when necessary. (Knife, trauma sheers, and my new replacement for my z-knife.)

You are supposed to have a two cutting devices, and having two differing forms of them would seem helpful and I would think the difference in this one (and line cutters in general) is that you can "hook" what you need to cut

oops, RJP has it covered

DiveGearExpress is selling them for $20 vs $26 on the EEZYCUT website.

But they DON'T include extra blades at that price.

Looks like DiveSeekers.com has it for $24.99 including two extra blades.

Ya, I did some price checking and found lower prices than EEXYCUT or DiveSeekers, but when DiveSeekers throw3 in the extra blades, that others asked over $5 for, they had the best offer. Still wish they offered a SB member discount, cause I bought several as gifts, besides one for myself.

 

[ffdiver]

Actually, divegear express has them cheaper and if you buy the replacement blades with shipping it's still a tad bit cheaper than diveseekers.com

 

[gypsyjim]

Too late. Bought four as gifts.

Very effective looking tools they are. I looked around the shop for stuff to test them on, but my boss gave me the evil eye when he saw me with tool in hand, checking out various wires, and cords!
