I picked them up before the start of the season, actually when Mike had the sale in the shop. They have been out on a few trips and have been underwater the majority of the time. I have not rinsed them and don't plan on it to see how they hold up. I can tell you that I can cut braid without putting any tension on it and makes a clean cut. Time will tell. I was in Mikes yesterday and he only has a pair left. He did mention that they made replaceable parts for them.
I am tempted to buy some extra cutters to try to cut a hook with but I'll save that untill the offseason. Till then I'll carry a set of Manleys in the car just in case.
