Dr Slick Typhoon Fishing Pliers 6.5 in – Tungsten Cutter with Spare Jaws (1992)

Dr Slick Typhoon Pliers Cutters 6.5 Inches

Meet the Dr Slick Typhoon Fishing Pliers Cutters, a rugged tool designed for anglers who expect reliability on every trip. This model pairs a compact, reach-friendly form with a robust cutting edge, ideal for line work, hook removal, and on-the-water maintenance. With a lineage tied to Dr Slick’s precision tooling since 1992, Typhoon balances a confident grip with practical features that help you stay organized and in control during demanding days on the water.

The standout element is the cutter material. The cutter part is made of tungsten, which is very hard, offering a resilient edge that holds up under repeated use. This design aims to deliver clean cuts and smooth operation, even when you’re tackling braided lines or thick leaders, while the overall build resists the harsh realities of salt air and spray.

Durable, Edge-Ready Cutter

The tungsten edge is paired with a robust body and ergonomic handling. Saltwater conditions can be harsh on gear, so Typhoon emphasizes corrosion resistance and a comfortable grip that helps you maintain control through precise tasks. The 6.5 inch length provides reach and leverage without feeling bulky in hand.

• Hard tungsten cutter for wear resistance
• Saltwater-ready construction to resist corrosion
• 6.5 inch length for on-boat reach and control
