This cutting tool gives you superior control while cutting all type of materials from thread to quills without errant cuts. If you don’t have one you need one.

I am reviewing two items today because I purchased them both around the same time period. First the ERGO EASY CUTTER. I simply love this tool! It gets down deep into the base of the thread just beyond the whip finish knot. And this is a very sharp tool! I also like the little curved up channel that leads out to the sharp points on either side of the tip of the tool. I will be promoting this tool at my next fly tying class meeting on Tuesday! Now the LOON ERGO BOBBIN. This tool is another hands down winner! Honestly, I first purchased a cheaper, similar Rite Bobbin just to see if I liked the one arm style of bobbin and if it was easier for me to thread. It definately is. I'm also on a fixed income so price is an issue for me. I have nerve damage in both of my hands due to carpal tunnel surgeries so threading a bobbin with a right and left arm is very difficult for me. Once I determined that the one arm style of bobbin made it easier for me to thread it, I was completely sold on purchasing the slightly more expensive Ergo Loon Bobbin. Let me tell you all, that it's true that you get what you pay for! The dial in drag on the Loon bobbin works so much better than the drag on the Rite brand bobbin. I found it impossible to get the tension to that "sweet spot" with the cheaper Rite Bobbin. It was either too loose and thread was slipping off the thread spool, or it was so tight that my thread kept on snapping. Not even my fly tying instructor could set the tension on the Rite Bobbin in to that "sweet spot" of just right. Also I could close my eyes and tell you which was which. The Loon Ergo Dialed in Bobbin is simply the better buy. It's heavier and it's made mostly of metal unlike the almost all plastic Rite Bobbin. If I had just purchased the Loon bobbin from the beginning I would have actually saved myself not only money, but also a lot of stress and frustration! In conclusion, the Loon Ergo Easy Cutter and the Loon Ergo Dialed in Bobbin tools were both the most economical value packed options. Go get yourself the Loons!

Let's just say I have a few more years on me then my mind wants to confirm. I have nephropathy bad in my hands so when it comes time to snip the thread if I have scissors I am like that Scissor hand fellow. Not only the thread but hackle, dubbing and maybe even a finger can be the victim. The Easy Cutter in my paws makes any fly safe and only the thread has to worry. Great tool, Thank you

This thread cutter fits old hands well and makes that final clean up easy. No more materials covering the hook eye. No cutting something you did want to cut. Loon hits it out of the park again

The Ergo Easy Cutter is a must have for your tying table. I use a lot of Semperfli Nano Silk that is hard to get a clean cut with, even with sharp scissors. The Ergo Cutter makes the cleanest cut on this thread, I love these cutters !
