[b35w]

I mean I'm all about quality but 300 bucks for a pair of fishing pliers?

No I don't. That's what I'm saying $300 ain't happening. I was just trying to figure out why they call so much. I was thinking 50 bucks

You talking about the titanium? That's the ones that I saw they were so expensive.

It's the material itself plus the pain of machining it.

I'm talking about the material itself. Machining it isn't cheap either.

Yep, I have a titanium headed hammer that was $150

I'm no fish poet, but these are my go-to when being stored on the center console: http://www.cabelas.com/product/BOONE...B&gclsrc=aw.ds

Your run-of-the-mill aluminum pliers with the braid cutter on the side and a lanyard are what stay in my pocket. Ones nearly identical to these can be found regularly for $20-$30: http://www.cabelas.com/product/Cabel...rs/1166282.uts

And, FWIW, a 1"x10"x8" piece of titanium is about $800.

You get your high horse, rich ass over here and I will show you what you need. Just make sure they will cut a bigass treble hook off at the barb. Ask me how I know.

Jigging World has some decent house brand pliers in both straight and split ring. I get about 1 summer out of a set of pliers and keep about 3 sets on the boat at a time. The jaws, cutters or ring tips wear out or corrode, bend or break but by that time the pliers are about shot too. I'd never buy the expensive ones either since I occasionally donate mine to the bottom structure. The long nose Berkeley with the ring tip are good, just treat them with corrosion block after every trip or two.

Sergeant makes fishing pliers in 2 sizes, the larger have good side cutter for heavier cable and hooks like DD said make sure you have some cutters that will cut the trebles on Rapalas , Drones, and Russell Lures. Small bolt cutters will do big hooks.

What is the benefit of Ti pliers?

Is it the weight reduction?

[Swamp Rat]

Weight reduction and no corrosion. I just buy decent stainless steel pliers.

I'm not getting any further from land than I can see.
I know it is a mental thing a friend of mine on here just got a brand new 42' an I've already said I'm. It going unless we tow a stirofoam island or something to make me think land is close by.

Now while that may sound essentric paying 300$ for a set of pliers that weigh maybe a oz less than the 40$ pair of piers seems a tad over the top.
