Dr. Slick
All Purpose Scissorstop
The name says it all!
The name says it all! Medium length with blades designed for small, medium and large flies. The one to have in your traveling kit. Excellent for natural materials and can handle most synthetics.
Barb Pliertop
A crushing beast
A crushing beast. This is designed to handle destruction of most hook barbs in fresh and salt water. Smooth jaws and spring-loaded, I keep one in my vest and another on my tying bench. Easily handles most streamside tasks. Not just for fly anglers, this item is very popular with walleye and bass fishermen for hook removal.
Bead Tweezertop
Unique arrowhead design
Unique arrowhead design allows these self-closing tweezers to grip any size beads or cones. Non-slip rubber pads on both jaws make it easy to pick up tiny beads and protects against breakage of glass or plastic beads.
Bent Shaft Scissorstop
Easier to pick up off your tying desk
This series is based on the Big Three and on a simple concept. Picking flat scissors up from a flat surface is no fun, and sliding them across your bench to get them in your hand is a time killer. By placing a bend in the middle of the scissor, the problem of picking up is solved. Handles and performs just like a regular straight scissor. Excellent with natural materials and can handle most synthetics.
Bishop Tweezerstop
Great for picking up hooks, beads, hackles, etc
Indispensable on the bench for picking up hooks, hackles or beads. Great for holding materials in place when tying a fly.
Bodkin - Jumbotop
5 Inches
Used to apply head cement, tease materials on a fly, or execute a half hitch.
Braid Scissorstop
Designed to cut braid and synthetic lines
Great little scissor designed to cut the new age braid and synthetic lines. If you use braid for backing or terminal tackle, this is a must. I use braid to attach stinger hooks to my large streamers... so naturally I have this scissor handy on my bench for this task.
Extra Hand Tweezertop
Super versatile tweezer
Super versatile bull dog, self-closing design. Can be used for a myriad of tasks on the tying bench, but really excels on your vest or in a fly box. I keep one on a retractor and use it to select #20 flies from my midge box and then let it hang while I repack the box. No need to transfer fly to patch. Extra Hand does it all.
Half Hitch Toolstop
Brass
Four half hitch openings cover hooks #8-#22
Iris Scissorstop
The Classic!
The Classic! Most of us started with Iris scissors and they have stood the test of time. Thin blades and hypodermic tips make these ideal for small flies and detail work. Excellent with natural materials and can handle most synthetics. Curved Tip options has a 30 degree angle.
MicroTip Scissorstop
Designed for small delicate detail work
This series is based on the Big Three, but designed for small delicate detail work. Hypodermic tips on the scissors make short work of very small or lightly dressed flies. Excellent on natural and fine synthetic materials.
Open Loop Thinning Scissortop
Adjustable PVC Loops
Malleable loops allow you to custom contour the scissor loops to your fingers. Excellent with natural materials and can handle most synthetics.
Razor Scissorstop
Possibly the sharpest scissors ever created
Possibly the sharpest scissors ever created. Think razor blades with handles. These thin blades with a razor edge make short work of all materials. Adjustable tension allows for loosening or tightening as materials warrant. Cuts through natural and synthetic materials like butter. Made from 440 grade steel. These are the ultimate tying scissors.
Synthetic Scissorstop
Designed for cutting heavy natural and synthetic materials
Designed for cutting heavy natural and synthetic materials. Heavy blades with large serrations for cutting tough stuff like glo bug yarn, foam, leather, plastic, bead chain, lead, wire, and mylar. A must for all tying benches.
Titanium Bobbintop
4 inches
Bobbins are the critical tool in tying since they must keep smooth tension on the thread spool and have super smooth inserts to apply the thread to your fly. To this end, we have created three series of bobbins that handle these tasks with ease. All have delrin feet for smooth tension on the thread spool, and have either dual glass, ceramic or titanium oxide inserts for smooth application of thread to fly. These funnel shaped inserts allow for a smoother application of thread or other materials as the bobbin is rotated, and they cause less breakage than traditional pipe or straight edged inserts.
Tungsten Carbide Scissorstop
7X harder than stainless steel and holds an edge longer
Based on the Big Three, this series has Tungsten Carbide blades welded onto the scissor blade frame. T.C. is 7x harder than stainless steel and holds an edge longer. These can handle all types of tying materials, but were created to tackle modern synthetic materials.
Twisted Loop Scissorstop
All Purpose
This series is truly unique although still based on the Big Three frames. By offsetting one loop and installing a gap between the loops, we have created a more ergonomic scissor with better control and dexterity, while reducing finger fatigue. Excellent with natural materials and can handle most synthetics. Fantastic if you tie with scissors in hand. FYI, your thumb goes in the standard loop.
