Master Braid is basically the same as Spectron--maybe a tad rounder. Same diameter, same rough finish. It comes in both ice blue and yellow instead of green and "salt & pepper" like Spectron.
John--I'm thinking to control tension, you could hang what's left on a filler spool off a fly tying bobbin, hold the other end and work it over a blade. Lots of people probably have a few yards left over on a 300 yard spool after filling a reel.
