Use a scalpal, just be careful not to damage the spool.

Berkely line stripper. Had mine for years. If you're only using it once a year reverse the battery or take it out when not in use.

Toilet roll holder over the chuck of a drill does a decent job 👍

Another option for recycling is Aptus Tackle. You can send old line in to them for free and in return you get a free piece of tackle on your next order:

Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
