One Pair of Pliers That Does Everything
Most anglers go through a pair of pliers every season. The cutters dull, the jaws corrode, the spring rusts out. You end up buying cheap pliers repeatedly, which costs more than buying good ones once.
Epic Tungsten Pliers solve the replacement cycle. The tungsten carbide cutters handle braid, mono, fluoro, and even light wire without dulling. When they eventually wear, you replace just the cutter inserts, not the whole tool. Aircraft aluminum body means saltwater corrosion is not a concern. At $29.99 with a sheath and lanyard included, these compete with pliers costing twice as much.

Replaceable Tungsten Carbide Cutters
Tungsten carbide stays sharp far longer than standard steel cutters. Cuts braid cleanly without fraying, handles mono and fluoro easily, and even manages light wire. When they eventually wear down, swap in replacement cutters instead of buying new pliers.
Aircraft Aluminum Body
CNC-machined from aircraft-grade aluminum for a lightweight, corrosion-resistant frame. The coated carbon steel jaws add grip strength where you need it without adding bulk. Total weight makes these comfortable for all-day use.
Complete Kit Included
Ships with a nylon belt sheath and stretch lanyard. The sheath keeps the pliers accessible on your hip. The lanyard prevents the inevitable drop overboard. Spring-loaded action at 7.5 inches provides enough leverage for crimps and hook removal.
How to Maintain Your Fishing Pliers
1. Rinse pliers thoroughly with fresh water after every saltwater trip
2. Open and close the jaws several times while rinsing to flush salt from the hinge
3. Dry completely before storing in the sheath
4. Apply a drop of oil to the hinge point monthly
5. Inspect cutter inserts for dullness and replace when they stop cutting braid cleanly
6. Check the lanyard clip and sheath for wear before each trip

What line types can the cutters handle? +
The tungsten carbide cutters cut braid, monofilament, fluorocarbon, and light wire cleanly. Braid is the real test, and these handle it without fraying. See our line comparison guide.
Can I get replacement cutters? +
Yes. The tungsten carbide cutter inserts are replaceable. Contact us about availability. This is the key advantage over pliers where dull cutters mean buying a whole new tool. Browse our tool collection.
How do these compare to the Gerber Magniplier? +
Different price points, different strengths. Epic pliers are $29.99 with replaceable tungsten cutters. The Gerber Magniplier Salt Rx is $109.99 with hot-forged aluminum and Salt Rx coating. Both are excellent. The Epic is the better value; the Gerber is the premium option.
Are they good for split rings? +
These are general-purpose fishing pliers, not dedicated split ring pliers. They will open split rings in a pinch, but for regular hook swaps, a dedicated pair like the AFW Split Ring Pliers is more efficient.
Do they come with a sheath? +
Yes. A nylon belt sheath and stretch lanyard are included. The sheath keeps them accessible at your hip and the lanyard prevents loss overboard. See more Epic Fishing gear.
Will the aluminum corrode in saltwater? +
Aircraft aluminum is highly corrosion resistant. Rinse with fresh water after each trip and they stay in great shape for years. The coated carbon steel jaws also resist corrosion. Read our gear essentials guide.
