KastKing Speed Demon Pro Fishing Pliers, 420 Stainless Steel, Fishing Tools, Saltwater Resistant Fishing Gear, Tungsten Carbide Cutters, Corrosion Resistant Coating, SuperPolymer Grip Handles

Used 3 times, not a very good review unless I've used it for a year but I want to give an opinion. I am a guide and fish alot. I use these all day and have used most of the competition products. These are long enough to get deep hooks out and the cutter cuts braid like butter. We will see how long this is the case. The cutters look like they can be replaced but I don't know where you would get replacements. The soft grip is great. I am usually covered in fish slime and blood and still can keep a good grip on these. These work as well or better than most I've had. (So far)Anything can work ok out of the box, it's after a year that matters. They lock into the holder very well and the belt clip works better than all the others I've used.Usually rust takes out the cutters then after a while rust takes out the pliers.If I see any reason to update this after a year, I will.It's been over a year and I have to say, I still love these. They get used at least 2 fishing trips a week, The handles are soft and comfortable but they are coming apart after a year in the hot Florida sun. I put some heat shrink over the rubber and they are better than new.I like how long they are, you can get the deep hooks out. I will definitely buy a couple more of these.If you keep them out of the sun they will last a long time. Mine stay on my boat attached to my t top support Iin the sun all day every day.

Perfect fishing pliers. Saw a few reviews about rust. These are 100x more resistant than lots of more expensive ones I’ve used.

Was not a big kastking fan. I fell in love these are a good set.

Reviewing the 8" split ring versionPros:- "Value" pricing (inexpensive, but good quality)- Lightweight- Comfortable grip- Cutters work on the braid I commonly use (see picture, 40lb 4 strand)- Cutters can make near flush cuts due to positioning- Hook nose is small enough for small split ringsCons- Jaws bias slightly open unless you really squeeze the handles, making it difficult to grip thin lines when cinching knots. I recommend wrapping the line around one of the jaws and pulling instead of trying to grip the lineMisc. Notes- Included leash is pretty short. It does its job and I appreciate that it was included, but I prefer longer leashes and keeping my tools attached to me instead of unclipping to use them- Haven't had them long enough to test the corrosion resistance. Will update this review later to include that infoOverall very happy with this purchase, and would recommend them.

As a kayak fisherman, developing a system that is simple and easy to manage while out on the water is essential. This will often mean you need a tool that has multiple functions to meet varying needs. That's where these pliers shine.These are not only a quality set of pliers, but these come with a split ring nose notch to assist with changing out split rings on lures or other tackle. They have a great integrated line cutter which is now my primary tool for cutting line when out on the water. They also have notches milled into the base of the jaws that can be used as assists for cinching down knots.In addition to the functional benefits, the handles are comfortable and look great. I prefer these to the foamy or sometimes super rigid handles that are on other sets of pliers. Also, it comes with a carrying sheath with a 360 degree rotating ABS plastic clip. It's super sturdy and can be hooked onto a belt or onto a PFD for quick access, and is also fitted with a carabiner attachment so you don't lose them. Literally always by your side.I'm very pleased with these and would recommend for any angler.

Pliers seem nice and sturdy and well made. Cutters work well. The pliers don’t twist with hard pressure as my others did. Nice that you can do a few things with these, like straightening eyes and holding hooks while tightening knots, eliminating the need for some other small tools.

I’ve used these for a few months now surf fishing. They are great. No corrosion!!!! Even with heavy use in salt water. I love the holster so they are always with me. Priced right. I like the groves to hold hooks while cinching down knots on heavy leader. The cutter is great for harder to cut braid. The holster is on a swivel so you can turn it sideways on your waist so it’s not digging into your torso when sitting. But the fact that it’s actually non corrosive alone makes it work the purchase. I’ve bought more expensive pairs of pliers that were supposedly non corrosive but the salt water dilestrous them quickly.

Best fishing pliers I have used. Fast shipping.
