Tiemco TMC Spinning Hackle Pliers, Standard
A handled spinning plier with a joint that allows the jaw and grip to work at different angles.
Description
Consider this tool if turning your hand around the vise causes you to pull the stem out of position. The joint allows the plier to approach at a right angle to the handle. That gives you a way to follow a parachute wrap while maintaining control of the pull.

Fit and buying advice
This is the standard handled model. Compare the shorter version when working on very small flies and the handle itself keeps getting in the way.
Questions about this tool
When does the joint help most?
On a wrap around a post where the jaw must change angle while your hand stays in a comfortable position.
What is the end of the handle for?
Tiemco identifies a half-hitch feature at the rear. Use it when that is the finishing knot you need.
How does the short version differ?
Tiemco describes it with a shorter grip for detail work. Compare working clearance before selecting a length.
