firstime 0 #1 February 29, 2008 This is from a post a couple of years ago about a reserve ride that I had( NOT due to a malfunction) but bad body position therefore had to use my knife prior to cutting away. If your new or seasoned and upgrading your gear please consider a metal hook knife and if your a dealer don't sell these. Yes this plastic one saved my ass but if I needed to cut one more line I might not have survived. I had put the snap end between my teeth after I was done and could not believe my eyes when I landed. Moral... NO PLASTIC HOOK KNIFE Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pilotdave 0 #2 February 29, 2008 "Zak Knife Convenient plastic handle with razor. Often used for belly slitting or in urchin processing." http://www.seattlemarine.net/productcart/pc/viewPrd.asp?idcategory=0&idproduct=8837 Cutting lines in an emergency is probably not as good a use for it as urchin processing. On the other hand... "A simple tool that could save your life. If you become tangled in line or leader simply cut with concealed razor blade. Will cut mono to 800lb. Many of our products at OHO have a pocket designed specifically for a Zak's safety knife. This is to ensure that in a life threatening situation, a blade is at your fingertips." http://www.oldharboroutfitters.com/products/productDetails.cfm?product_id=56 So it is good for life threatening situations, like getting caught in your fishing line.
