Product Information

The DiveCatalog.com Line Cutter is a compact safety cutting tool for divers, built to slice through fishing line, netting and rope quickly during an entanglement. Its corrosion-resistant stainless steel blade sits recessed inside the housing, so it cuts line without exposing an open edge, and it comes in a pocket size.

Who it is for

This cutter suits scuba divers and spearfishers who want a dedicated entanglement tool rather than relying only on a knife. It works as a backup to a primary dive knife for scuba divers and spearfishers who may become entangled in line, netting or rope. Because the blade is protected, it reduces the risk of accidental cuts to the diver or gear.

Key details

Blade: recessed corrosion-resistant stainless steel, intended for line, netting and rope.
Protected edge: the cutting edge stays inside the housing, reducing the risk of accidental cuts to the diver or gear.
Size: Pocket (SKU DC-CUT-LINE-PCK).
Carry: stows on a BCD, a harness or in a pocket thanks to its small footprint.
Role: entanglement cutting and safety backup to a primary dive knife.

Looking for a small fixed-blade knife instead? See the DiveCatalog.com Compact Dive Knife.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the Pocket and Compact sizes?

The Pocket (DC-CUT-LINE-PCK) and Compact (DC-CUT-LINE-SM) are the two carry sizes offered; pick the one that suits your stowage. Both sizes are offered as the Pocket (DC-CUT-LINE-PCK) and Compact (DC-CUT-LINE-SM) versions of the same recessed-blade line cutter and cut fishing line, netting and rope. Choose based on how you plan to stow it, whether on a BCD, on a harness, or in a pocket. Call us if you want help deciding.

Can the DiveCatalog.com Line Cutter replace a dive knife?

It is designed as a practical backup to a primary dive knife rather than a full replacement. It is designed as a backup to a primary dive knife, made to cut fishing line, netting and rope in an entanglement. Many divers carry both: a knife as the primary tool and this cutter as a small, protected-edge second option.

Is the blade safe to carry against a wetsuit or BCD?

The cutting edge is recessed inside the housing, so there is no exposed open edge when you stow or handle the cutter. That design reduces the risk of accidental cuts to the diver or gear, which is why it stows easily on a BCD, on a harness or in a pocket. Rig it where you can reach it quickly, such as on a BCD, a harness or in a pocket.

What can the line cutter cut through?

It is made to cut fishing line, netting and rope, the materials divers most often get tangled in. That makes it useful for scuba divers and spearfishers who may need to cut their way free of line, netting or rope. It is intended as an entanglement and safety tool, so keep it accessible rather than buried in a pocket.

Line Cutter - Mandatory Item

All divers should be required to don a line-cutter. Unfortunately for most, they only realize they need it until they're in an underwater emergency.

Just purchased me 3rd DC-CUT-LINE-PCK line-cutter. Not b/c my previous ones broke and became inoperable, but b/c these work, they last forever, require a simple freshwater rinse, and are now on all of my BDCs.

No brainer.

Excellent wetsuit but will it crush quickly like other wetsuits?

I purchased a BARE 5mm Reactive wetsuit (open box), which was like new, to replace my 1.5 yr old BARE 5mm Velocity wetsuit which had collapsed to only 2.5mm after 3 diving trips (~100 dives). The Reactive wetsuit is well constructed and very flexible. I had to increase the size of the Reactive suit, as it was smaller than the BARE Velocity suit of the same size. Tremendous customer service by Dive Catalog to exchange the wetsuit for proper size. I hope the Reactive suit does not crush so quickly like my other wetsuits (BARE, Henderson, Pinnacle). Hoping that the new technology in this suit will keep me warm below the thermocline.

Perfectly Built

Best of the many many diver hangers in my life. Easily supports my steel-plated BCD, while still donned with all of my accessories. No cracks, bends, or dents. Has even supported my BCD w/ a steel 100 tank attached (not recommended, for safety purposes, though).

Will continue to use this hanger for the long-term. No brainer.

Go-to Dive Hanger

This is a must-have for every diver. It's the quintessential hanger for all dive gear in one small package.

DiveCatalog's "Quick Dry Multi Accessory Dive Gear Hanger for Boots, Gloves, Hood" is set at a great price for a great product. Versatile enough that I've purchased extra hangers to organize my BMX racing gear.

Must-have for divers and anyone looking to organize their adventurous outdoor activities equipment.

Solid Hanger w/ Tons of Options

Does it's job and then some. The added accessory arms gives you options for a multitude of storage solutions. Solid build, solid pricing, must have for owns of dive gear.

New to this hanger...Now I'm a believer

Used tons of dive hangers, but never an upside down hanger. Game-changer for me. Will now add more of these in the near-future.

With it's swivel head design, it can cram itself into my tight dive locker, while still donning a ton of gear.

DiveCatalog's "Upside Down Drysuit Hanger w/ Regulator and Accessory Hooks" is a great product with solid construction at an affordable price. All of that with Dive Catalog's customer support/satisfaction guarantee.
