The tapered shape provides two grooves for shaping different sized loops in stiff hooklinks and coated braid. The thin tapered point is perfect for shaping D’s on chod rigs etc.
A countersunk hole through the tool can be used for holding a hook when tightening knots and the mushroom-shaped top holds the ring of an Un-Link Swivels to test knots and tension rigs. Ergonomic and tackle box friendly.
