Rapala’s proprietary, patent pending Mag Spring mechanism on the pivot point of the pliers has two opposing magnets that push away from each other and hold the pliers open for easy one hand operation. Unlike springs, the magnets won’t break or lose their power in use. The durable stainless steel jaws with gun metal finish have serrated tips for secure grip. Ergonomic, co-moulded Soft Grip handles for comfortable hold.
