Gerber Gear Magniplier-Salt - Durable,Fishing Pliers with Sheath - Spring-Loaded Pliers for Freshwater & Saltwater Fishing - Premium Fishing Accessory - 7.5"

Excellent quality and very comfortable in the hand.

As they are, these pliers would get 4/5 stars. They check all the boxes, but do have the commonly known issue that the jaws don't fully close. Gerber prioritized the carbide cutters closing first for some reason. But it's an easy fix. All you need to do is grab some aluminum duct tape (or another tape) and put a couple strips under each of the removable plier faces. Adjust it so that the pliers close to your satisfaction. Takes 10-15 minutes at most

These pliers are top notch! If you are looking for quality, don't look anywhere else. I've purchased all kinds of pliers and they either rust, corrode or seize up in salt water. I fish inshore and offshore at least every other week. all my pliers get tons of saltwater on them, which means they also mess up, even after rinsing them. I treat these Gerber's the same way I've treated all the other pliers, no visible rust or corrosion after almost a year of using them. Spend a few bucks more and get quality. The right tool for the right job. You won't buy anymore pliers after these.

This Gerber product appeared great online, but my very first impression of the tool looking at it while still in the packaging was: "What a Chintzy Looking Locking Mechanism". Yes the little "blue aluminum flip lock" is wafer thin (like soda can pop top thin, the part that attaches to the can and always breaks). So flip on, flip off, flip on, flip off...loose tolerances! Decided to go full on 1980's Mr. Miyagi Karate Kid style: "flip on, flip off, flip on, flip off" for a few minutes to see if it will break or bend before even unboxing it. On a $90 pair of premium fishing pliers carrying the "Gerber Name", I would expect this lock to be a well machined beefy part and operate smoothly with tight tolerances, like the rest of the pliers components (which are outstanding by the way). This was the "Higher level SALT RX version" and the lock will be utilized multiple times per day on the fishing boats, day-in day-out for years. As a former military guy, Gerber usually makes decent products. This product is very decent and rock solid except for the chintzy lock, but hey it does give you that Made in China aura you can discuss with your fellow fisherman. Will keep it and give it a go, but my question is will it last under regular use (locking mechanism), only time will tell. At least as a consolation prize, the pliers carry an Unlimited Lifetime Warranty" so any failure will get rectified with a new pair as needed. Maybe even with an improved locking mechanism by that point if Gerber is listening???

Great for larger hooks. To big for smaller hooks and medium trebles

This is a well designed set of pliers. the quality is great, and they feel great in your hand. My only complaint is the sheath does not match the quality of the pliers. I would recommend spending the money on these pliers so that you don't become disappointed in the performance of cheaper pliers.

Just a great product sturdy in my head grip well. The jaw will close all the way ! With a little extra force ! Unlike other Pliers no matter how hard you squeeze the handle ! The jaw won’t close and you can’t grip line ! Cuts Braided line with no problem like them a lot. The only thing I would change with the sheath would make the belt loop plastic so you could hang it on a Fishing of us there’s no real way to attach it to a fishing vest

Pliers close all the way if you put a grip on them, they are made that way so you can pull fishing lines tight without damaging it? They work perfectly fine and functions as meant. A little high but should last a lifetime

The pliers are well made and have good leverage and grip when you need to dislodge hooks, the cutters are sharp and work very well. They hold up pretty good in the salt👍

軽くて使いやすい。 ストッパーが便利。 小型のフックは隙間が広くて使えない。 大型フックには問題無し。 その事は明記してほしかった。
