I'm a pier fisherman and I attached the nylon plier sheath to my pier cart with tiewraps so the pliers are always right at hand. The coating looks like it will hold up well to the salt air exposure and so far the pivot action is smooth as silk. The handles have a nice "grippy" texture when you handle them with wet or slimy hands.

Really like how they feel and the line cutter is very easy to use

I have the 8in and they do their job well. The cutter is one of the best, and I am able to get a clean cut of braid even a year after my first use. The only issue I have is that the cutter is situated in a weird position for me, other than that, solid pliers.

As described, came with case and leash which is nice. Used in heavy saltwater and no issues to report.

I've only had them on one trip down the river but they seem well built and solid,
