Everybody sells this tube & hose cutter, I bought one at the Ace
Hardware in Ocean Shores WA for less than the one I bought at L&M
Fleet in Bemidji, MN.
The best $5 0r $10 you'll spend if you are doing some PVC or CPVC
work and they are great for auto type hoses, I have one in my tool
box just for cutting hoses and another hanging on the wall over the
work bench because I have two of them. A nice clean & square cut
every time.  Make sure it will go large enough for the hose you
intend to cut if you are buying it just for that.
