Pot/line cutter for NP43 propeller shaft?

I want to put a pot cutter on my NP43-60. I'm thinking of going with the shark shaft.

Question: What pot/line cutters are other NP Owners using?

Question: Why/what do you like about your particular line cutter?

I used a Spurs line cutter on my previous sailboat. While I found it extremely effective at cutting any lines, it would tick as the moving cutter would pass the stationary cutter. I am thinking of using the shark shaft due to other's recommendations and it's quiet/simple.

We have installed both Spurs

We have installed both Spurs and the Shaft Shark though there are more Shaft Sharks in use on our boats because of the ease of installation. So far I have not heard any complaints from Spur or Shaft Shark owners about them not working.

Shark Shaft for 2.25" prop shaft comes in 2 piece version

Update: I purchased the Shark Shaft 2.25" model and I was happy to find that it was a split or two piece model that does not involve removing the propeller.
