Great Lakes Freak 0 Report post Posted September 5, 2009 Does anybody know where I can get a cutter that cuts claw? Most places just sell body cutters and I,m having a hard time finding one.I was told by the local fly shop that there is only one guy who makes them. I find it hard to believe that there is only one person in the whole country that makes them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Futzer 0 Report post Posted September 5, 2009 I would think a pair of garden scissors or small electronic coax cutter would to the trick. On Crawfish I use my Able pliers. Never have cut crab claws myself, except ones headed for drawn butter. Cheers, Futzer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

streamer 0 Report post Posted September 9, 2009 Chuck Kraft owns Kreel Tackle, and makes claws for crawdads. I purchased a pack, then cut claws with a pair of scissors from the tracings I made. I used chamois pieces, not the nice square cloths that are too much $$$. Here's the link to Chuck's site: http://www.kreeltackle.com/tyingmaterials.html Check out his Clawdad pattern. I tie it and fish it for smallmouth, largemouth, and browns. Regards, Streamer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted September 9, 2009 Steelie is correct river road made me a crayfish claw cutter. What are you looking to cut with it though? The cutters work great on foam. Ultra suede, not so much! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Futzer 0 Report post Posted September 10, 2009 Hey GLF, I really need to get more sleep, I thought you were cutting live crawfish and crab claws off. LOL. As for tying flies try the Montana FLy co. they do custom cutters for materials. too. Cheers Futzer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
