The MC-A cuts through the heaviest monofilament line as effortlessly as if through butter. The cutters are precision machined with heavy-gauge blades, teflon-coated for smooth cutting, rust resistance, and long-lasting sharpness. Patented oil-free pivot assures optimum matching of blades and enhances the cutting power with its low friction sliding effect. Both tools have a safety lock and shock absorbent handle grips, countoured to fit the hand comfortably.
