The ones I have now are Mustaad, the pair I had(and lost) before were South Bend, I think the pair before that I bought at the Surfcaster or Cabela's etc.. Plain, 8" stainless steel needle nose, the cutters will cut mono and wire. I use them to remove hooks and cut leaders and they work just fine. They usually cost under $15, last at least 4- 5 seasons if I don't lose them( I have lost them all so far). I don't need to have a lanyard to get tangled up in, the only thing I did invest in was a good sheath, a Ripoff which I've had forever.
What can I say, I'm frugal. I've lost, say 4 pair in 8-9 seasons, still way ahead of $300+ Van Staal, Abel, etc.

Just after I posted this I read about the Browning plier- those do look pretty good, I'd like to see them.
