Spur cutter

Hi All,
Is there a preferred orientation to the rope cutter when reinstalling or one way only. I know the anode goes into the notch but then you have another free floating piece that can be fastend down in any direction. See pic.

Hi Chuck,

It looks like your line cutter should be sharpened. If you are in the USA send it to Spurs to have it sharpened.

It is worth considering having a second Spurs cutter, so you can rotate them around every haulout, whilst one is being sharpened and having a new anode fitted. Something to consider.

Thanks All for the replies. I have read the spurs cutter manual and now know more about it than I ever wanted to but very helpful. $125 for diamond blasting, sharpen, anode and general refurbishment out of Florida. I would have done that if I hadn't already spent most of the day picking dried barneys off and descaling it. That would have been money well spent.
