These high grade, precision ground stainless steel blades have been manufactured to work superbly on both braided and monofilament fishing lines.
They cut through any coated hooklink, copolymer line, Fluorocarbon or Dyneema braid cleanly and easily.
These blades have been thoroughly tested by Gardner Tackle’s in house team of rig tiers and work brilliantly even after prolonged use.
Features: Ultra Blades have one serrated edge and one smooth edge, which combine to offer the most precise cut. The serrated edge effectively grips the line in position whilst the flat edge effectively slices the line. These scissors are supplied with a protective cover to help maintain their condition and sharpness. Robustly constructed handles feature soft touch inserts for comfortable and secure grip.
‘Peel & Pull’ Stripper Tool:
This handy gadget doubles as a skinned hooklink stripper and knot puller. It easily removes the outer coating of the Gardner ‘Skins’ range (and all other coated hooklinks).
Features: Strips coated braids without damaging the inner braid. No more need to use your teeth! The strong moulded knot puller allows you to fully tighten down loop knots. Ergonomic design is comfortable to use.
Braided Hair Needle:
The original ‘braid friendly’ crochet type needle.
The needle has been designed to retract through the bait, into the handle, leaving the right amount of hair loop showing ready for a hair stop to be inserted. The fine diameter of this needle means it will not split small and delicate hookbaits.
Possibly the safest baiting needle to use, the Gardner Braided Hair Needle has become an iconic piece of carp angling hardware.
Features: Rounded crochet point does not easily pierce skin. Retractable design helps to prevent damage to needle. Ergonomic Easi Grip handle with Posi Pip Thumb button for use in the dark. Lanyard hole for keyring attachment. Stainless Steel needle. Manufactured in the UK. Length=11.8cm (with handle), 2.9cm (needle only)
Braided Hair Needle XL:
Extra Long version of ‘the old faithful’, the Braided Hair Needle.
The longer needle allows the XL Braided Hair needle to be used with extra large or double hookbaits and hard baits such as air dried boilies and nuts.
Possibly the safest baiting needle to use, these needles have become an iconic piece of carp angling hardware.
Features: Fine diameter means it will not split small and delicate hookbaits. Alignment Cup enables holes to be punched centrally each time, easily and effectively. ‘Braid friendly’ ballpoint crochet type needle retracts through the bait into the handle leaving perfect sized hair loops every time. Retractable design for added safety and to prevent damage to needle. Ergonomic Easi Grip handle with Posi Pip Thumb button for use in the dark, click-lock in closed position. Lanyard hole for key ring attachment. Stainless Steel needle. Betalight slot at bottom. Manufactured in the UK. Length=18.7cm (with handle), 6.7cm (needle only)
