The fids are reasonably made from a lightweight stainless steel pressing of thin sheet. You are undoubteably paying for the name as they are not as robust as expected and needed a few burrs removing before use. Theycertainly work well, but I found they would not cope with my particular doule braid as it was 24 ply cover and too tight, so I had to resort to a modified coathanger to pull the core back through on the final part. Overall for most situations, they are fine, but a little expensive for a light pressing.

I found the Fids to be very good. I would like a solid, pointed bar to be part of the kit as too easy to bend the hollow fids.
