The top rate BCU Sea Trainer people I've met carried EMT shears in an EMT velcro belt pouch on their vests. They have blunt tip and can puncture a skirt if needed, and they cut through anything...including the types of fishing nets that are made on line that resist knife blades, even of the claw-foot toothed design. Just my two cents. Will On Aug 10, 2009, at 10:16 PM, Derek wrote: > I am looking for a solution to prevent knife loss while on the > water.
