Keep in mind that when a large fish puts pressure on either a split ring or cut hook the fish will generally do it gradually with the high probability of later increasing pressure from say a rolling wave or a drag that is tightened late in the fight. I think the potential is there for opening a cut hook; I'll take my chances with a split ring...

We all live for 7 seconds of screaming drag...
