this tool is a must have for any serious fly tier! it enables you to make a whip finish incredibly fast and easy! its a little tricky at first to figure it out but once you get it, you are good to go! I wont tie flies without it.

This tool along with a great pair of scissors is a must. I work as a mechanic, so my fingers are rough, making it near impossible to hand finish my flies. I tie all my flies and have used this tool all the way down to a 28 hook. Once I learned to use this tool it is as simple as can be and I get a tight finish. I have been using the same finisher for 10+ yrs.

I am new to fly tying and highly recommend this tool to any beginner, it is well worth the money. Easy to use and makes a much better, faster, and easier finish knot than you can doing it manualy.

the smaller one (cheaper one) would be easier for tying closer to the hook. The bigger one is for finishing over material like for pike streamers and stuff like that.Details:

Size is the differance. One is made for finishing flies with cork or foam bodies where the thread is near the bend of the hook the other is made for finishing flies that have the thread near the eye of the hook.1 of 1
