Do Tiger Claw deck fasteners work?

I think the Tiger Claw fasteners look great. But I am concerned that they may not stay in place after years of use. Has anyone used them long term?

    Yep, they were used for a deck I built around my pool and held up well for the 5 years I owned that home. I also lived in a place where we got snow and hard freezes so the wood expanded and contracted without the claws being affected.

    Yes, I have used the fasteners for our deck that we built a little over 3 years ago now. They are still in fantastic condition with no sign of wear. They are really a fantastic alternative to the regular nails and screws normally used as they eliminate long term damage to the wood such as splinting. They are also rust-resistant so you shouldn't have any problems no matter what type of weather you have. Here's the site I got mine from and they were extremely helpful! http://www.diyhomecenter.com/tigerclaw/
