| I looking at buying a Knipex hook cutter. I see that they make a spring loaded one and one that is not spring loaded. Just wondering which one works better. or what one everybody else uses or recommends. |

Location: New Jersey | I use the one that is not spring loaded and they work fantastic. They're a bit cheaper too. Also, if you order than from Sears instead of a tackle shop you can probably save yourself $20 or $30. |

| Buy whichever fits your budget. Just buy Knipex. I have spring loaded because it was on sale for $27 |

| IMO, the spring-loaded ones are easier to use with one hand while you're holding an uncooperative fish and having to cut multiple hook points. |
