I just received my order of a dozen furled leaders.
I have used a few different brands, from Orvis to Blue Sky and although they are just O.K. I have really been happy. Mostly because the end loop where you attach the tipped usually collapses or some of the strands actually break.
I puchased the Feather Craft FC furled leaders because of the excellent feed back but primarily because they incorporate a small metal ring in the end loop. They are the only manufacturer that I know that does that. They also sell the rings for installation on ones you build. However, due to their size I don't believe you can retrofit existing leaders without them. You would mangle the ring trying to get it on.
The construction and action of these leaders is far better than anything I've used and they come in a myriad of sizes and wts. for different applications.
Here is the link if you want to check them out.

If you buy any after trying them; let me know what you think.
