Toby - In addition to what Cecil said, if you first chemically kill the cattails cut them when they are starting to yellow as Cecil recommended. If you let them turn brown they are very difficult to cut. When brown the cattails are leathery and tough to cut.
Spraying them first then cutting to remove bulky plant mass is no doubt best. Just cutting them without spraying will result in rapid regrowth of rootstock.
PS - I use my Y cutter to manage my underwater plants. The Y cutter is extremly sharp and a dangerous tool if not used carefully and properly. New blades are definately sharp as rasors and not child friendly. Keep the tool away from kids!
