[QUOTE="KDM, post: 118921, member: 314"] A Cable Cutter is the way to go if you're dealing with snares. With most wire cutters, (side cutters, linesmans pliers, multi-tools) I've tried to use on cable, you have to work at it a bit to first get the tool under the cable, which can be fun if the cable is tight to the neck and then second to get it to cut the cable. You don't want to waste time if your dog is in trouble. A cable cutter fits right over the cable from the outside and you cut it. Quick and clean. I've released enough foxes and have tried the other types of tools and I can tell you for sure that a pissed off fox with a tight cable around it's neck is not something I want to daudle with. Grab, Cut, Release!!!! If you're going to carry the extra weight, it might as well be the right tool for the job. JMHO though. For sand burrs and other stuff that's not an emergency, I keep that stuff in the truck. [/QUOTE]
