I’m using 550-lb parachute cord for stringing, but I can't find anything that will cut it cleanly. I’ve tried a bunch of tools, but only my newest wire cutters come close, and they still don’t cut it cleanly.

Our best suggestion to cut 550-lb parachute cord would be heavy-duty scissors made specifically for multiple layers of fabric.
