I didn't buy my VS pliers to cut hooks but rather to cut braid, trim knots and remove hooks from thrashing fish.
Best 200 buck ever spent and if I loose them, I'll buy another pair.
I work with tools all day long, remodeling homes. I have bought every tool needed, four times over, going mid road quality.
Now I purchase only the best at any cost. They last longer and hold resale value.
I you bought a pair of VS pliers for $200, used them for four years, (providing you didn't try to cut hooks with them) what would you think you could sell them for?
I'll get most my 200 bucks back. Money in the bank!  |
VS pliers do indeed cut VMC hooks! I have several times and have yet to change the teeth.
I also agree with everything else you say......buy the best always! Funny I wonder how many guys have spent a bundle on high end reels but do not think the money is well spent on the best pair of pliers money can buy??
