Description
Abel Nippers
Abel Nippers have been the only nipper available with dual cutting surfaces versus a cutter-and-anvil design, making it the premier cutting tool on the market for everything from 8X tippet to braid. Abel set the bar for high-end nippers when they debuted back in 2007.
The new models take that same principle, but adds new ergonomics and type III anodized bodies. Two sets of rare earth magnets keep the jaws open without a hinge. This avoids corrosion issues while also acting as a reliable “fly dock” to attach your flies to while rigging.
All Abel Nippers include a lanyard, so they’re always right where you need them.
