The Matarelli whip finisher is the original whip finishing tool, often copied, but never duplicated. The whip finish is used to complete a fly, tying off the head with the whip finish knot. Many tyers can preform this knot without the aid of a tool, but for most people, the whip finish tool is the way to produce great results every time you tie a fly.

Comments about FishUSA Matarelli Whip Finisher:
Even though there are look a likes made overseas availble, they will never compare to the original. The small differences make a big difference in use. I tie thousands of flies a year, I just happened to wear my old materelli out.
