I got mine on eBay.

Think I paid $180 brand new in box, only reason was because spelled van staal wrong (van stahl) and I don't think anyone saw em.

Worth the money, buy a good high quality lanyard and check it throughout the season.

I have a pair of the 6 or 7" Hansom pliers on my light weight belt set up, and they can barely bend a line tie on a plug, never mind remove a buried hook, they flex a lot, plus side is cutters are great, so they now are in my freshwater box.

Like stated above, the screw in jaws are junk, one piece or nothing from now on.

Not even necessary to buy a lanyard.
Make one.
Thin black cord/rope they string up outriggers or similar works good.
Tie good knots direct to the rings.
Screw snaps at each end, that way you can't lend them out, which is probably the number 1 reason they end up in the drink or lost.
