Barb Plier
A crushing beast
A crushing beast. This is designed to handle destruction of most hook barbs in fresh and salt water. Smooth jaws and spring-loaded, I keep one in my vest and another on my tying bench. Easily handles most streamside tasks. Not just for fly anglers, this item is very popular with walleye and bass … more
Bent Shaft Scissors
Easier to pick up off your tying desk
This series is based on the Big Three and on a simple concept. Picking flat scissors up from a flat surface is no fun, and sliding them across your bench to get them in your hand is a time killer. By placing a bend in the middle of the scissor, the problem of picking up is solved. Handles and … more
Braid Scissors
Designed to cut braid and synthetic lines
Great little scissor designed to cut the new age braid and synthetic lines. If you use braid for backing or terminal tackle, this is a must. I use braid to attach stinger hooks to my large streamers... so naturally I have this scissor handy on my bench for this task.
Extra Hand Tweezer
Super versatile tweezer
Super versatile bull dog, self-closing design. Can be used for a myriad of tasks on the tying bench, but really excels on your vest or in a fly box. I keep one on a retractor and use it to select #20 flies from my midge box and then let it hang while I repack the box. No need to transfer fly to … more
Iris Scissors
The Classic!
The Classic! Most of us started with Iris scissors and they have stood the test of time. Thin blades and hypodermic tips make these ideal for small flies and detail work. Excellent with natural materials and can handle most synthetics. Curved Tip options has a 30 degree angle.
Razor Scissors
Possibly the sharpest scissors ever created
Possibly the sharpest scissors ever created. Think razor blades with handles. These thin blades with a razor edge make short work of all materials. Adjustable tension allows for loosening or tightening as materials warrant. Cuts through natural and synthetic materials like butter. Made from 440 … more
Synthetic Scissors
Designed for cutting heavy natural and synthetic materials
Designed for cutting heavy natural and synthetic materials. Heavy blades with large serrations for cutting tough stuff like glo bug yarn, foam, leather, plastic, bead chain, lead, wire, and mylar. A must for all tying benches.
Titanium Bobbin
4 inches
Bobbins are the critical tool in tying since they must keep smooth tension on the thread spool and have super smooth inserts to apply the thread to your fly. To this end, we have created three series of bobbins that handle these tasks with ease. All have delrin feet for smooth tension on the … more
Tungsten Carbide Scissors
7X harder than stainless steel and holds an edge longer
Based on the Big Three, this series has Tungsten Carbide blades welded onto the scissor blade frame. T.C. is 7x harder than stainless steel and holds an edge longer. These can handle all types of tying materials, but were created to tackle modern synthetic materials.
Twisted Loop Scissors
All Purpose
This series is truly unique although still based on the Big Three frames. By offsetting one loop and installing a gap between the loops, we have created a more ergonomic scissor with better control and dexterity, while reducing finger fatigue. Excellent with natural materials and can handle most … more
