One thing to consider is not all braid are made alike. Super slick powerpro will not cut as well as plain original powerpro. I had a real life demonstration of this today when I unintentionally almost spooled myself on a reel that I bought used from someone. I already knew that there were two different braids on the reel but after this incident I discovered there was actually three. When drawing in the line the first one felt like yarn, not very abrasive at all. The second was perhaps a little more. The last which I'm pretty sure is the original powerpro left a cut on my thumb.
