Abel Nipper

The Abel Nippers are engineered for anglers who demand the finest in performance, durability, and craftsmanship. CNC-machined from aerospace-grade aluminum and stainless steel, these nippers represent the pinnacle of fly fishing utility tools. Designed to slice effortlessly through tippet and leader material from 80 lb fluorocarbon down to 8X mono, the Abel Nippers deliver clean, precise cuts every time.

Equipped with replaceable stainless steel jaws, these nippers are heat-treated and ultra-hardened for exceptional edge retention, reducing the need for frequent maintenance. The ergonomic lever-action body ensures a comfortable and reliable grip, even in wet or cold conditions, while the spring-loaded hinge allows for smooth, one-handed operation—ideal for quick tippet changes on the water.

The body is anodized for maximum corrosion resistance, making the Abel Nippers ideal for both freshwater and saltwater environments. Custom laser engraving options and Abel’s iconic hand-painted finishes ensure that every pair is as visually striking as it is functional.

Additional features include a built-in hook eye cleaner crafted from a stainless steel pin and an integrated lanyard hole to secure the tool with your preferred zinger or retractor. With a compact profile measuring approximately 2 inches and weighing under 1 oz, the Abel Nippers offer portability without compromising strength or performance.

Whether you’re fishing remote alpine streams or battling trophy tarpon on the flats, the Abel Nippers stand up to the most challenging conditions with refined precision and unmistakable Abel style.
