Bolt Cutters

I have what I think is 3/8" anchor chain on my 42' trawler. Not sure whether it is the super hardened type or not. I want to purchase a quality pair of bolt cutters in case I have to cut the chain loose in a bad situation. Definitely looking for better quality than Harbor Freight. Any recommendations on where to buy them?

I've seen "quick release chain shackles" that would allow you to release your anchor chain. Google it and see what comes up.

Buy the right size cutters on HF and they will work! I have a pair I've used for 20 years or more now. Mike
