Greys Line Clipper
Greys Line Clipper is a compact leader nipper designed for quick, controlled cutting while fly fishing. It makes light work of trimming tippet, shortening a leader and removing tag ends after tying a knot. Its small format is easy to handle with one hand, helping the angler change flies efficiently without reaching for a knife or larger pair of scissors.
Made from surgical stainless steel, the tool has sharp cutting edges for neat work on leader material. A built-in hook-eye cleaner can be used to clear an obstructed eye before threading the tippet, whether the blockage is caused by varnish, stray fly-tying fibres or fine debris. Gold-plated ends provide the clipper with its distinctive finish.
Keep the Greys Line Clipper in an accessible pocket or tool section of a fishing pack so it is ready whenever a fly or leader needs changing. After use, particularly around salt water or silty water, rinse it with fresh water and dry it thoroughly before storage. Removing trapped pieces of nylon from the cutting area will also help the mechanism continue to operate smoothly.
