You know that old saying, "if its too good to be true, it probably is!"

They are easy to get on but an absolute pr!ck to get off! I'd rather deform a pack of normal rings than spend the time trying to remove them! Maybe I'm using them the wrong way, but I stay well away from them now.

Obviously using them the wrong way
When all else fails as they say follow the instructions.

Jon Li:
In my opinion , Owner Hyperwire splitrings are still the best and for installing the rings onto thick gauge hooks ,  the right plier is needed for these splitrings , up till today my favourite is still the Duel plier , would be perfect if they make it in stainless steel !  :'(

Peter Morris:
Decoys are my favourite but I do use owners on occasions also.

Brandon Khoo:
I sue pretty much all the main brands of split rings, including the Bouz but I really struggle to get them off.
