Ironclad Co. Ghost Net Knives

Image
There is enough fishing line abandoned each year to wrap around the equator 400 times, and enough abandoned fishing nets to cover the entirety of Scotland. Drifting for years, these ghost nets terrorise everything in their path, from marine life to the marine environment. The Ironclad Co. have turned this problem material into a product solution, creating the first range of knives with 100% discarded fishing net handles – Ghost Net Knives.
The fishing nets are recovered from nearshore areas of the ocean by Oceanworks, then meticulously processed, cleaned and forged onto a lifetime-guaranteed blade, in partnership with 97-year-old knife maker Victory Knives, turning what was a wasted commodity into something valuable. The unique filleting knife is the hero in the range of four knives - sleek, flexible and loved by fishermen the world over, it delivers clean, effortless cuts for delicate tasks.
As part of a new Impac+ initiative, every knife sold will haul a further 1kg of discarded fishing nets from the oceans. And part profits from every sale will be donated to LegaSea, a non-profit organisation dedicated to restoring the abundance, biodiversity and health of New Zealand’s marine environment.

Hayabusa Jigging Sabiki

Hayabusa has been able to combine a high-quality Sabiki with a metal jig and create a ‘Jigging Sabiki’ (as they call it). The combined use of both Sabiki and a metal jig makes it possible for an angler to target and catch a wider variety of fish. It is a ready-touse rig that is super easy to handle, you just need to tie the line to a swivel, throw and reel in or use a jerk action. What’s more, the Jigging Sabiki can be used with other lures, such as plug-type lures and plastic worms on a jighead. No matter where you go fishing, be it on fresh water or salt water, fishing from the shore or a boat, Jigging Sabikis will prove to be your best and most reliable fishing rig.
