Does anyone have any experience with these new cutters as it relates to cutting through muskie size hooks?

Don't guess. Buy the best. You won't have to buy one but once.

Sometimes you can get Knipex cutters off ebay for around $30. They cut through hooks like nothing.

I figured everyone would scream buy a knipex, but if you've never used the Berkley cutter how do you know it isn't better?

Because it's not a knipex. Why risk it?

Guest, if you were registered I would send you a more detailed explanation but to sufice I will tell you that I have used the Berkley one, and I have many of the Berkley TEC tools in my boat, but I don't even have that one in my boat anymore as I have a Knipex.

While Knipex do work well, they are not without problems. I have 3 pairs and the upper third of a cutting edge broke off on 2 of these cutters. They still work but they did break after some use. They are good tools but you may need to replace them.
