Stonfo Parachute Plier Art.482
The Stonfo Parachute Plier Art.482 is a specialized fly tying accessory designed to simplify the tying of parachute flies. It securely holds the hackle while it is wrapped around the parachute post, providing better control, improved accuracy, and perfectly even hackle turns for professional-quality flies.
The plier is designed to slide onto a 5 mm support arm, allowing the hackle to remain under constant tension while leaving both hands free to work. This makes one of the most delicate dry fly tying techniques significantly easier, faster, and more consistent.
Manufactured in Italy, the Stonfo Parachute Plier Art.482 is an indispensable tool for fly tyers who regularly tie parachute dry flies and demand maximum precision, comfort, and repeatability.
