Pros: Ease of Use
"Great! Wow, what a difference. I was avoiding the split rings but really wanted to use them. This tool makes it possible and efficient. A bit pricey for what it does but still worth it if you use this type of jump ring. Sure saves your nails as well as frustration."

Use of pliers
Date:May 20, 2010
Pros: Price, Quality, Unique, Ease of Use
"After reading some of the reviews, I was unsure about purchasing the split ring pliers. It seemed that most of the comments were less than favorable.
However, I was pleasantly surprised at the ease of use and the usefulness of the pliers.

stop struggling with split rings!
Date:May 11, 2010
Pros: Price, Quality, Size, Ease of Use
"I have been using split rings for years as they are more secure than open jump rings. But I struggled with them too - lots of chipped thumnails!
I finally got these pliers and am SO happy I did... they make the job so much easier and my thumbs thank me.

Tania
Location: Phoenix, Arizona
Date:March 16, 2009
Pros: Price, Quality, Size, Color
Cons: Ease of Use
"The only complaint I have about this tool is that it does not have the spring between the handles that creates tension when you squeeze the tool. Every other tool has that metal resistance piece. This makes it difficult to use it. I have checked other split ring pliers by other manufacturers, and they do have this piece. It seems to be a quality tool, other than this problem. I don't recommend using this one."

Pros: Price, Quality, Ease of Use
"I have broken my last fingernail trying to deal with split rings! These work like a champ, even teeny tiny 4mm rings open and go on to clasps and charms with ease. A great purchase!"

Fantastic
Date:July 12, 2007
"I saw a pair of these in a local shop and tried them out before ordering this pair. There is NO comparison! Although they were exactly the same price, this pair is much better made, slightly smaller and easier to use. Really a quality product!"
