‘minke‘, the innovative pocket sized multi-tool by scottish meso design allows users to effortlessly cut fishing lines, thread hooks and tie knots. threading a fine line through the eye of a small hook can be difficult – even for experienced anglers. the injection-molded polycarbonate accessory includes a variety of features such as a flexible rubber head that holds hooks sized 8 – 16 and a funnel that feeds the line straight through the eye of the hook for a painless set-up. integrated clippers allow you to trim the line, and the ergonomic design makes tying a clinch knot effortless– all delivered in a sleek tin which you can use to store hooks and lures.
