Never tried it, Netcraft use to sell it but havent seen any for sale in years.

I tried it way back when it came out. Had troubles bending the arm to keep swivels and blades on. I never crimp connected, but probably would have solved that issue.

I am not sure where you would even by it? I know Terminator slapped someones p***** for patent infringement.

can't tell you how many i've gone through over the years. caught so many fish on them the paint would wear off and i'd toss'em instead of refinishing between the wire and those blades, just have a lot of confidence in them.

plus, i want to do something a little different with a rocket shad knock-off and i think the t-wire would be killer

You cannot just bend it like steel wire.

I think you have to heat up the wire to bend it properly. The heat makes the wire lose its flexiblalty making it able to bend.

Its also got to be bent at the correct temperature or it will become brittle and break easily.

from what i've read, i believe it needs to be heated somewhere around 900* to be able to keep the new form /shape. was just hoping someone had a source for pre-formed t-wire
