Cone Cut Technology
A smaller hole.
A better hold.
Proprietary metal grinding produces a cone-shaped point instead of a flat-ground one. It opens a smaller incision, so it penetrates with less pressure — and does less damage to the bait and hold on to your catch with finely crafted barb.
Cone-cut point
Easier penetration, smaller incision, reduced bait injury. Better for live bait.
Finely crafted barb
Sized to hold, not to tear. Easy to get hooked, hard to get it off.
