The strips work well for palmered bodies. The two-tone color adds visual appeal and the crosscut design gives a smoother lay. I’ve used them on several flesh fly collars and they hold up well during use.

Good quality and consistent width. The crosscut pattern helps the strips lie flat, which improves the overall presentation. A bit more expensive than plain strips, but worth it for the performance.

Perfect for detailed setups. The strips are easy to handle and the two-tone effect stands out. I noticed better alignment when palmering compared to regular rabbit strips.
