I have had a handle similar to this one for several years. I was always concerned about misplacing it or losing it. I had seen a handle at my local fencing store but it was not nearly as well designed as Premier’s handle, or my original handle.
I was very pleased to rediscover Premier 1 and the availability of this well designed handle. So now I have a spare to ensure that I won’t lose the original. The round inline strainers are the best fencing gadget ever.

This strainer works good for the lighter gauge wire I was using. I’m not sure if it would work on 10 or 12 gauge wire. If you are installing many of these I would suggest getting the tightening tool advertised with it. I used a 1/2" drive cheater bar and it served the purpose, but it was awkward to use.
