vs pliers cant cut a hook, without the cutters shattering. = junk to me.

manleys cut a hook = good to me saw some on sale for 30$.

Most times I remove the hooks from fish I release with my hands.. yup sometimes I even touch the fish

.69 cent nail clippers on a piece of rope cut braid great!!! and for the price, I keep one in each of the plug bags I use and one in each dry top and one in my waders, and a few extras in the car. And if I remember to hit them with a drop of oil at any point in their lifespan they last longer....

I dont need vs pliers, I fish at night so I dont have anyone to POSE for

I actually splurged this year and bought 16$ rapala piers, I hit them with 3 in 1 red can a few drops whenever I think of it and they do fine. They crimp steel leader sleeves, they do split rings, they cut braid, they come with a sheath, and they remove a hook from a fish if I need them to just fine.

vs pilers maybe if I got them below wholesale or free. Then I'd be all over the internet spouting babble about how great a pair of pliers that cant cut a hook are....

The reels I can see the sense in the purchase the pliers not unless I get them wicked cheap or free. I'd like to see how many of the advocates for the vs pliers paid full price

Domination takes full concentration..
