This kit features:

Pack Of Jewellery Pliers, Snips and Tweezers:

• Chain Nose (Snipe Nose) Pliers - an all purpose tool, use to grip and tuck in ends of wire and reach into small spaces, use to open and close jump rings, with crimps and more.
• Bent Chain Nose Pliers - perfect for getting into areas that are harder to reach and useful for bending wire
• Flat Nose Pliers - ideal for a secure grip on wire, jump rings and metal sheet, creating angular bends and flattening and straightening metal as well as closing pinch ends.
• Nylon Jaw Flat Nose Pliers - a must have for wire work as it will not mar or damage the metal, also brilliant for straightening wire (includes a spare pair of nylon jaws)
• Round Nose Pliers - create loops and coils in wire, head pins and eye pins, one of the most useful tools in wirework
• Side Cutters - useful for general trimming or cutting any soft wire or beading threads
• Knotting Tweezers - useful to help make and position knots between pearls and beads.
• Split Ring Tweezers - handy for holding and opening split rings to attach to clasps, charms and connectors.

This set is slightly smaller than standard pliers but still a very comfortable and usable size for most.
