All nippers are 2" and have super sharp blades, an industrial strength hook eye cleaning pin, and a built-in hook file. Knot-tying models have an easy-to-use nail knot tube attached. Innovative offset or slanted blade face is designed to work in tight to flies and snip tag ends of tippet without cutting hackles or materials. Dr. Slick 5" Standard Clamp Gold Straight: Clamps are designed for a myriad of tasks like crushing barbs, removing hooks from fish (or yourself!), opening/closing split shot, knot-tying, cutting tippet, etc. Knowing what tasks you regularly perform stream-side will help you select the clamp(s) that best suit your angling needs. Clamps tend to be a very personal item, and like a favorite rod or reel, people have preferences for their clamps. Some anglers like short clamps and others prefer long. Some like straight jaws while others prefer curved. Many like the gold loops/handles and others prefer the stealth-mode black.
