Just in the market for some new lead putty,used kryston for a few years now but just wondered if there are new ones out there that are good.the kryston can be hard work in the wet or cold

I've tried a few brands of putty over the years most have not measured up to what I was looking for, a putty that is heavy, easy to use, sticks to the hook length and stays put and at the same time doesn't stick to everything else.
Last month my local tackle dealer recommended the putty from Carp Spirit so I bought some. I have to say he was right their putty is the best I've ever used. So much so I went back and bought some more.

I really rate the esp stuff..

Kryston heavy metal is good

Second the ESP stuff.
Don't think anything will be on the same level as the original kryston putty but the ESP is better than a majority out there.

I like the bank tackle stuff. Its the only one that ive had that hasnt come off yet, even when smear, or stick tiny amounts to the side of a tungston sinker.

Got the kryston stuff now mate and used it for a few years,the newer stuff isn't the best in my opinion

TNT Tungsten Putty

Just looked at mine now and it's the older stuff that I have

The Slyfish putty is very good and great value with two colours in one pot.

I've always gotten on well with the thinking anglers stuff, shame it's a pathetic quantity each time though

I rate the Nash Putty, struggle to find one that's better.

For me, given it's used in the most important area, saving a few £ for a sub-standard product isn't the one

From the fact pretty much everyone has recomended a different putty so far we have probably got to a point with putty technology that they are all either the same putty rebranded, or just all very similar.

The Rigworx putty is the best I've come across

Didn't Mr Chilton comment on the Kryston putty going back to the original recipe?
