I used the shimano coated pliers for a few yrs there cutters work great.so i guess in a moment of I need more fishin tackle this yr i got a pair of the Don-mars.i was gettin em pretty good on evening an i wanted to cut the siwash hook of the tail of a plug an just leave the bucktail around the eyelet.an i was very disappointed when the cutters broke on 4/0 mustad.i could have got through the hook with my 5 dollar cheapo's.how do they make a product that sells for 100 dollars an bother to put cutters on em that break under minimal stress.U know the regular needles worked great for me for yrs with alittle oil every now an then.I mainly bought the more expensive ones cause the had a hole for the lanyard.so i didn't have to tape the cord to the handle.It went against many of my basic KISS beliefs an had me feelin like a jerk who had been had.
