FAQs
Are these blades suitable for cutting leadcore?
While they are sharp enough to cut leadcore, doing so repeatedly may dull the blade faster. It is recommended to use them primarily for braids and rig materials.
Can the blades be sharpened?
The blades are precision-ground at the factory. While possible to hone, they are designed as a high-performance disposable item for the rig bench.
Is the handle waterproof?
Yes, the handle is made from durable plastic designed to withstand bankside moisture and outdoor exposure.
How do I store these safely?
Always store the blades in a dedicated, closed compartment of your tackle box where the edge cannot be accidentally touched.
Are these legal to carry?
These are specialized angling tools. They should remain inside your tackle kit and be used only for their intended purpose of rig preparation while fishing.
Troubleshooting
The blade feels less sharp than when new.
Check the edge for debris or residue buildup. Clean the blade with a microfiber cloth and ensure it hasn't been used on abrasive materials like leadcore wire excessively.
Surface marks appearing on the metal.
This is likely surface oxidation. Wipe the blade with a light coating of maintenance oil and store it in a moisture-free tackle container.
Pros and Cons

- High-visibility green handles prevent loss in grass or dirt

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These blades are ready to use immediately out of the package. They are compatible with all modern carp angling lines, including fluorocarbon, coated braids, and leadcore. To maintain performance, wipe the blade clean after use with a dry cloth to remove any bait residue or moisture. If you are fishing in wet conditions, store the blades in a dry tackle box compartment to prevent surface oxidation. Avoid using the blade to cut metal components, such as swivels or hooks, as this will prematurely dull the tempered edge.
