diving knife

Subaquatic cutting tool

A diving knife is a small, sturdy blade carried by scuba divers and snorkelers, primarily as a safety tool rather than a weapon.

Divers use it to cut through fishing line, kelp, or netting if entangled underwater.

Most feature a blunt tip to prevent puncturing equipment, serrated edges for sawing, and corrosion-resistant steel or titanium construction.
