Excellent hook release for chronomics and small flies
Using one of these to unhook you fish protects your fly and also allows a quick release of your trout. Way better than using hemostats.

Exactly what you wanted but it weighs less!
Very effective and ultra light hook remover tool. I don’t know what it is made of but it is well made with no unfinished portions like many things one buys these days that are hastily 3D printed and shoved out the door. I’d buy it again.

Well made but not what I was hoping for
Great quality but kind of expensive for what it is. There is a learning curve to using it as well. I very rarely end up using it.

Works good, but not that easy to use

Works great!
I used this with barbless flies on a catch and release fishing trip. I was skeptical at first and used my trusty needle nose pliers but destroyed a couple flies with them. I finally tried these. After a couple fish I got to where I could nearly always remove the hook with a little wrist snap and not touch the fish. The tool works great and I believe helped protect the fish from being handled. They are ridiculously overpriced though.

The Ketchum works
Never used the Ketchum before and it worked like a charm when I first used it. Instructions are easy to follow for success and fish longevity

Looked everywhere for one of these as they work great for gently releasing fish. Happy to be able to gifts these to other avid fishers.
