Cressi Alligator Dive Scissor Knife

Overview

The Cressi Alligator is a compact underwater scissor-knife for diving, spearfishing, line cutting, and other cutting or gripping tasks. It combines conventional knife use with scissors, a dedicated wire-cutting notch, and plier-style gripping surfaces in a single tool.

Cutting and gripping functions

With the handles closed, the Alligator can be used directly as a knife without first opening the tool. Opening the handles provides scissor action for controlled work on fishing line, netting, cord, and similar materials. Straight and serrated cutting sections provide different cutting surfaces, while the separate notch provides a dedicated wire-cutting point.

Toothed gripping surfaces allow material to be held or manipulated in a plier-like manner when cutting is not the only task required.

Carry and access

The sheath and strap arrangement allows the tool to be carried with dive equipment between uses. Before diving, confirm that the selected mounting position keeps the Alligator accessible without interfering with other equipment or normal movement.
