Well made and much nicer to work with than the other brand fids i have used for years.
These are well made and polished. they are really the selma fids labeled also as ronstan. they are much simpler to use than samson or NER fids. they make splicing high tech lines such as dyneema or technora much more enjoyable. the well polished tips make it much easier to avoid fraying or severing fibers as you use them. in combination with a d-splicer, or even a bent piece of crab pot or lock wire, there should be no splice you can't do in high tech line.

High quality - easy to use
These are very easy to use. The nesting is nice, too. They are hollow and have a little tab to help pull line through (instead of trying to push it through).They are not as sturdy as more traditional fids, though. Don't use them as a handle!I prefer the Brion Toss splicing wand for most splices.

Easy to learn splicing..
I was able to use this kit the day it arrived. Had been looking for a complete set of Fids in one kit and the Ronstan kit worked out perfectly. There is a small tooth at the back of the Fid that holds the line in place while your splicing so you don't need to tape the lines.

~ I get a little better every time I do a new line
Still learning!~ I get a little better every time I do a new line. Works fine, but for the money you spend why not throw in a pusher in the tube for the larger lines.Until I buy a pusher I find that a plastic chop stick is working.

Great Fids / Simple Fix
Selma fids that have Ronstan label, made in Norway and very well made stainless steel, ( simple fix ) along with some other people my 2 large fits were stuck together but easy fix 1 get a scrap piece of wood I used a 6 inch 2x4 - 2 point tip down on wood vertical 3 use a house hold hammer with a flat blade medium screwdriver 4 put flat blade screwdriver on smaller fid and tap screwdriver with household hammer and fits pop apart very easily 5 with a small pair of angled needle nose pliers on largest fid gently pry up triangular tab slightly 6 fits sticking solved. thank you for your time, have a good day!. ps fits are very easy to use.

Can't find a better set out there
Love these. What etchings on the smooth stainless barrel do not at all impede the travel of the fids. The half-open bay at the rear, along with the tiny hook, makes all the difference in the world. I had been struggling with splicing for years, and now I very much enjoy the task. These are the only brand and set I would suggest to friends. Thanks for making a solid product, folks. I'll passing this set down to my kids. But not now. They can wait.
