Quick take
A compact knot tool with fluorine-plated blade and clip reel for quick leader bundling in light games.
The Daiwa Lure Knoter LS is a compact stainless steel knot-tying tool made for quick leader work on light tackle. Its blade has a fluorine plating, and it can be used to tie knots such as the triple eight knot when wind or darkness makes tying by hand awkward. A clip-on reel lets it hang from a bag or vest, and a stainless steel hook on it holds small items like snaps. It weighs about 0.04 kilograms.

- Fly fishing and light game setups requiring quick leader changes

- You do not use leaders in your fishing
Strengths
