Description
The FreeHander lives up to its name, offering one-hand engagement when cutting and securing line. The wide paddle design gives intuitive purchase in cold or wet conditions and moveable parts provide a custom fit. Optimized for use with Mono & Fluorocarbon line.
More times than not, the adventure angler will find themselves fighting current in a river, bobbing in a kayak or clinging off the side of a boat. Tasks are rarely done on solid ground or with two free hands – out of this reality, the FreeHander was born. The inspiration was simple: give the angler a hand when cutting and securing line on-the-go.
Gerber took the familiar design of the line nipper and elevated it – honing in on the problem areas that anglers face. The FreeHander is not only a nipper, but a tool that can manage line or lure exchange in real time. The genius of the design centers around SuperVise Tech™, a pivoting retention clip that cinches line during lure exchange. No more flailing line or lures lost to the drink, just an easy to operate line vise that acts as an additional hand. A tether point is built into the pivoting line cutter that allows the angler to swivel the tool in any direction to get into tight spots with minimal strain.
