. . . the secret is - you need 2-3 pairs (irrespective of brand) One to cut mono / fluro, one to cut coated braid and the most important, one to cut braid - no matter what happens; if its dedicated to braid only it will continue to work. Little Korda ones are good for braid / cheapy tackle shop blue handles jobbies are fine for everything else!

pb products are the best i've used for braid
98% is cutting through coated braid so if there's one better suited to that, I'm all ears 👍👍
Ali express. I have bought a few pairs now. They are the same as the nash ones but without the nash logo and tax.
They are small so fit my box nicely

Tbh most are not blunt. The rivet pin works lose. A hammer on the pin on a solid surface works it out. I had some korda ones for five years. 3 times I got the hammer out and perfect.
Bought a PB Products Cutter Pliers, simply great
I bought a pair of scissors in the mid 80's and they still cut braid cleanly to this day, best pair of scissors I have ever had and I'm not sure what make they are, ESP springs to mind. Only small with very pointed blades and a red plastic handle.
They are even better than these blue handled "Cuda" ones".

I haven't got a link to my ones but try googling kevlar fibre cable scissors

I use Owner blades. Superb.

I can't remember how much they cost but the Gardner scissors are by far the best and sharpest I have ever used. Highly recommended
I have owner scissors and also the blue ones in Gerry's link but generally I tend to use a scalpel blade 👍

I've done the same. So much stuff off there is the same without the carp tax added!!

I'm reverting to decent nail clippers. If they can cut my nails, they'll have no problem with line and 3 for a quid 👍

I lost my TA braid scissors a while back and couldn't find them before a session. So took some nail scissors. They were brilliant. So now have those as my main ones.
If you're looking for carpy ones - I've used TA, ESP and Gardner. All perfectly good.
