A pole-mounted line cutter for radiosonde recovery. The tool attaches to the tip of a telescopic fishing pole and helps pull, guide, or cut the line, parachute cord, or balloon remnant when a radiosonde is caught in a tree or other hard-to-reach place.
It uses a hooked utility blade that can be retracted for carrying or extended for cutting. The tapered chuck-style clamp grips the carbon-fibre pole tip, while the small hole can be used for a safety tether or control line.
Print in ABS with a 0.4 mm nozzle. You will also need an M3 screw and a cap nut for the blade/clamp assembly.

Use with care: this is a sharp blade on a long pole. Never use it near people, animals, vehicles, glass, or overhead power lines.
