Gerber GE31003279 New Freehander Fishing Line Management
Tool
Overview
The FreeHander lives up to its name, offering one-hand engagement when
cutting and securing line. The wide paddle design gives intuitive purchase in
cold or wet conditions, and moveable parts provide a custom fit. Optimized for
use with Mono & Fluorocarbon line.
More times than not, the adventure angler will find themselves fighting
current in a river, bobbing in a kayak, or clinging off the side of a boat.
Tasks are rarely done on solid ground or with two free hands – out of this
reality, the FreeHander was born. The inspiration was simple: give the angler a
hand when cutting and securing line on-the-go.
Gerber took the familiar design of the line nipper and elevated it – honing
in on the problem areas that anglers face. The FreeHander is not only a nipper,
but a tool that can manage line or lure exchange in real time. The genius of the
design centers around SuperVise Techâ„¢, a pivoting retention clip that cinches
line during lure exchange. No more flailing line or lures lost to the drink,
just an easy to operate line vise that acts as an additional hand. A tether
point is built into the pivoting line cutter that allows the angler to swivel
the tool in any direction to get into tight spots with minimal strain.
Inclement weather isn’t anything new for anglers, freezing temps and wet
conditions can be par for the course. What isn’t the norm is an upgrade that the
FreeHander boasts: a wide paddle design for maximum contact between the angler
and the tool. The result is thoughtful surfacing that plays to the need for
control when working with small lures, thin line, and unpredictable conditions.
Gerber tools are built to last a lifetime. To ensure optimal performance,
rinse your tool with fresh water and dry thoroughly with a clean towel. Apply
oil to hinges and moving parts on a regular basis.
