Yup, will be interesting if the new 0.5 mm Krimps with the new Krimping tool will work with 'mono-esque' lines like Amnesia..

Just keep knotting it if your confident in that method, I tried crimping and lost a very good fish when the hooklink stretched and pulled through the crimp.

See no advantage to crimping to be honest !

Possibly the new Korda crimps for the new 15lb Boom will work with 20lb amnesia

I used to use the 25lb a lot found it stiffer and better than the 20lb for the uses I wanted. I would imagine it would be easier to crimp than 20lb as it's that much thicker.

I’ve put some together but not actually used them... they seem to hold fine under my testing but I wouldn’t be happy target fishing with it, yet. The 25 is 100% fine though. Crimped that a lot lately and it’s dealt with everything.
