Foam Crab Body Cutters
The hallmark of fine fly tying is consistency. But, no matter how hard you try, it's virtually impossible to cut materials exactly the same way each time with scissors. The result is flies that each look slightly different - an aggravation to the amateur and professional tyer alike! These cutters eliminate inconsistency. Produce identical foam crab bodies, time after time.
The craftsmanship that goes into these cutters, hand-made in Montana, results in an attractive addition to your fly tying desk. Durable, double-edged steel blades are set in beautifully-grained Northwestern hardwoods. Individual cutters in size XS, S, M, and L. Matched sets are seated in a solid, matching tool caddy specially designed to fit the cutter set.
With proper use, the creators have cut over two thousand foam bodies with one cutter - real value for your money. Special, self-healing cutting pads allow for repeated cutting with minimal wear on the cutting edges. If you are able to wear one of these pads out (and that means you've tied many a fly!), replacement pads are available.
