Which oil can cutter?

Which oil filter can cutter do you or your mechanic use? There are several
available and the prices are as varied as their claims. Wondering what you
use and which ones to avoid. Currently we've taken our filters to a friends
and borrowed him, his cutter, and his time. Time to buy one of my own.

Thanks!

I tried a few of them before I found the one at Sacramento Sky Ranch

Pricey but it works great.

I do NOT like P/N 12-21395 from Aircraft Spruce. The threaded pipe has
to be removed from the center of the oil filter for it to work.

Jim,
We followed the adivce given by Evan Julber in this thread

http://groups.google.com/group/rec.a...7?dmode=source

and ordered a pipe cutter from Harbor Freight

"BTW, you can open your filter for inspection one of two ways: buy an
expensive oil can cutter or call Harbor Freight and order a $14.95 pipe
cutter (No. 3, Item 05983-OCZA, 1-800-423-2567)."

It works great.

Michelle,
I noticed the Airwolf cutter looks like it "lacks" a handle, ie: it's rather
round. Any problems turning it?
Thanks,

That's the same short one way conversation that I've had with plenty of
women.... and getting married doesn't improve the situation much either!

The one that John Schwaner of Sacramento Sky Ranch designed and is selling
is my choice hands down.
