they are good off Paul (Hiram a biff) but not as safe for power casting as the ones i use, but thats only my opinion having used both of them

anything that only cradles the lead is never going to be as safe in my eyes

same as rotters

spot on, if something is only cradled, a miss timed cast can make the sinker jump off the link and snap the weak line, then god knows where the sinker goes or who it might hit
