Seems like a good choice to me. If they hold up well then great. If they don't I imagine that Cabela's will take them back and give you credit or possibly even a refund. They're good like that.

I wear my pliers on my belt so they are either submerged or getting splashed constantly on every trip. I got a $20 pair of Dr. Slick stainless pliers last year and now I can barely open the damn things, I never sprayed them with anything and the cutters rusted out after a few weeks. I also had those rapala pliers and those rusted out on me too. Maybe I just need to rinse and spray them down after every trip? I just don't want to have to deal with taking care of pliers just one more thing ya know?

i have a$20 pair that i wear on a regular basis. Also on my belt and they are submerged most nights (4-6 nights/week). I wash them every couple of trips and give a little WD when i do or when they feel sluggish. Usually on the weeknds, when i have time, i take all my gear out and rinse and let air out. rods, reels, pliers, belts, pfd, etc.
i just cleaned out my truck and found a total of 5 pliers from the season. 2 were rusted shut, let em soak in WD for a few hrs and now they work fine, nice rust coating but open and close with the best of em.
the cutters are useless, but i haven't found much to work on braid consistantly anyway. |

I've used that same POS pair for 2 years. A little 3-1 oil each week and they still work fine. That and a pair of nail clippers is all you need. |

My Shimano pliers are still hanging in there after two seasons.
But if its got the Cabelas name on it you really can't lose.

sure cheep pliers work but use a nice pair of spring loaded pliers and you'll never look back.

My thinking exactly! OSJL has lotsa stuff you can use. Like 6$ airbrushes too. |
He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.
