Description / Upavon Leg Knotting Tool
The Upavon Leg Knotting Tool is a dedicated bench instrument designed to simplify the process of hand-knotting fly legs. Purpose-built for fly tiers who prefer to create their own custom components, this tool removes the physical frustration of manually manipulating fine materials, significantly speeding up prep time for terrestrial, wet fly, and attractor patterns.
Engineered with an integrated hook-and-latch mechanism, the tool secures cleanly into the jaws of any standard fly-tying vice. Once mounted, the mechanical latch streamlines the process of forming uniform, consistent overhand knots in both natural fibres—such as cock pheasant tail fibres—and modern synthetics like flexi-floss, round rubber, and silicone sili-legs. This tool is highly effective for building the realistic jointed legs required for patterns like Daddy Long Legs (Crane Flies), hoppers, crickets, and various stillwater sub-surface lures.
The Upavon Leg Knotting Tool is available to purchase online and in store.
Key Features:
Hook & Latch Mechanism: Utilises a precise mechanical latch system that smoothly grabs, pulls, and loops materials through to form clean knots without fraying natural fibres or snapping delicate synthetics.
Material Versatility: Performs reliably across a wide range of materials, including natural pheasant tail feathers, turkey biot strips, stretch nylon, flexi-floss, and square or round silicone rubber legs.
Consistent Joint Placement: Allows the tier to regulate loop sizes and sliding tension, ensuring that leg joints are knotted at uniform lengths every time for a symmetrical fly silhouette.
