Designed for rugged fishing environments, the KastKing Intimidator fishing pliers and floating lip grip will be great additions to your fishing tool arsenal.
KastKing fishing pliers are made of S45 steel material which provides a great balance between performance and durability. This extremely hard material delivers the optimal force to grip and easily remove hooks without damaging or deforming the jaws. KastKing durable Teflon coating adds a hard protective shell and also helps to resist corrosion.
Ergonomic textured plier handles offer the comfort and maneuverability you need, while the serrated steel jaws allow you to securely grip any diameter hook for easy removal. KastKing also incorporated crimping slots for building leaders or crimping weights and bait tuning grooves so you can tweak your baits to ensure they are swimming straight and true.
The Intimidator pliers include tungsten carbide side cutters which can easily cut mono, fluorocarbon, and braided lines. These anvil style cutter blades resist rust and the side cutters allow you to cut close to knots when needed. Designers have also incorporated a raised surface behind the blade to eliminate the problem of your line dropping below the cutting zone.
The floating lip grip makes it easy to land your catch. These grippers will not sink if you happen to drop them in the water and KastKing also added an adjustable wrist strap just in case your hand slips. This lip grip is also very easy to use, it opens with one hand and can also be locked with one hand.
KastKing Intimidator pliers and floating lip grip provide a high quality option at a value, make sure you have your fishing tackle bag loaded with KastKing fishing gear!
These were just delivered today. They both seem sturdy. The lip grips are light and lock and unlock easily. The pliers seems strong and I think the coating will help keep them from corrosion. I mostly kayak fish in salt water and it can be brutal on gear. We will see how they hold up long term. I wish they included a leash like some of the other Kastking models but I was not expecting it and there is a spot to attach one to the pliers and the pouch. I had no problem cutting 20lb and 50lb braid but the cut on the 50lb was not as clean as the 20Lb and not as clean as my scissors. It will definitely do for most purposes.
These fishing pliers are lightweight and feel good in my hand. The nylon sheath seems well made; with 2 options on how to carry on your belt, time will tell how it holds up. My only issue is that the pliers do not come with any kind of lanyard or coil to attach the pliers to the sheath, I had to buy one separately, not a deal breaker but would be nice to have included.
The lip grip seems to hold strong. I haven't had the chance to use them on a real fish but was able to hold a 25lb dumbbell with no slipping.
