The well thought-out tools from Renzetti strike exactly the same note as the high-quality premium tying vises of this traditional fly tying forge. Quality, functionality and ergonomics are the cornerstones of the practical tools and all have one thing in common: they make your work at the tying table much easier and lead you to even more beautiful results.
The R-Evolution tools have been specially tailored for ergonomics and ease of use. So are the Hair Packers designed by Pat Ehlers in different sizes. Whether you're spinning bucktail on big streamers, tying trout muddlers, or creating a streaking caddis, proper processing of deer hair and bucktail is essential to achieving sleek and clean results. To do this, the hair must not only be evenly distributed around the hook shank, it must also be packed appropriately tight. Especially with smaller patterns, this work is idle and not easy without the right tool. This is exactly where a hair packer comes into play, and we particularly like the R-Evolution series. The three different sized models allow for the most precise work, depending on hook size and fly pattern. The funnel-shaped opening helps to keep the protruding material cleanly to the rear. So you always and effortlessly achieve the desired result.

About Renzetti:
Like many success stories, the one of Renzetti began in a small garage, back in the early 1970s in Pennsylvania, USA. Unsatisfied with the tying vises available at the time, Andy Renzetti sat down at the drawing board himself. Not long after, the young visionary launched the world's first true rotary fly tying vise, a milestone for many fly tyers and just the beginning of a company history marked by innovation and creativity. Since then, much has changed and the market for high-quality fly tying products has grown considerably. What has not changed: The high standard for the outstanding quality of Renzetti products. Because today, as then, the family-owned company delivers absolutely well thought-out quality products to demanding fly tyers all over the world. All Renzetti components are still manufactured in the USA.
