Quick take

A 7 inch 420 stainless steel plier with Teflon coating and tungsten carbide cutters designed for saltwater fishing.

These 7-inch pliers are made from 420 stainless steel with a Teflon coating, a build aimed at saltwater trips. Tungsten carbide cutters handle line, and the straight nose pulls hooks and crimps sleeves. A sheath and lanyard keep them on hand while you fish.

Best for

  • Saltwater hook removal and rigging
  • Cutting thick and braided fishing lines
  • Catfish and large saltwater species handling

Skip if

  • You fish exclusively in freshwater
  • You prefer compact pocket-sized tools

Strengths

  • Teflon coating provides extra corrosion protection
  • Tungsten carbide cutters handle heavy lines effectively
  • 420 stainless steel resists saltwater corrosion well

Trade-offs

  • Seven inches is relatively large for pocket carry
  • Teflon coating can eventually wear through
  • Tungsten carbide cutters require careful handling to avoid chipping
