Beadalon 201A-013 Slim Bent Chain Nose Pliers for Jewelry Making

These are the best pliers in my inventory, and that I have ever used. I have two pairs, one bent nose and these. They have never failed me ever, and are still as good as the day I bought 'em. Will probably buy another pair. In fact, I'm looking for the flat-nose version of these.

Use these for making chainmaille jewelry. They work very well bending 18 and 20 gauge stainless steel jump rings. They're also useful for 18 gauge bronze. I haven't used them with titanium yet, but would be very careful working with anything thicker than 20 gauge in heavier metals.These pliers have a longer handle than the Beadalon's that I got at a local craft shop and at first I thought I wouldn't like them, but now that I'm used to them, I find the shorter ones harder to work with.

Great tool for bending over the prongs of studs. I am using these for adding studs to denim jackets. Starting the prongs bending correctly and evenly makes it easier to press in the prong fully with a flat tool. (You could use this alone to do the job but I like to press very flat inside the fabric so I often do an additional press.) Handle is very comfortable. Spring keeps it in the open position so it is ready to grasp. I can use it for hours even with some arthritis in my hands.

This is a really good item for fine work, and can take wire work to a new level. From the beginning to the final steps of a project, these pliers will make a difference in quality. I have several pair, and have given some for gifts.

These are great pliers with very slim tips. They allow for close in work, when larger tips may block visual field. Comfortable to use. Seem to be very sturdy. Good for delicate work!

When I first got these they felt strange since they were not as big as the ones I've been using for over 20 years. The tips were also very narrow. I persisted in using them to see if I could get used to the different feel and now I really love them! They work great for more delicate work where a larger tool doesn't really fit as well and they also work as well for all jewelry making purposes as the other larger pliers I've been used to. I like the angle of the bent nose as some pliers are not bent quite enough for my tastes. These are perfect.

This tool is great for getting into those tight places when wire-wrapping. Mine disappeared - I have a dog that's a thief and I think he hid it from me - so I ordered another one. There are no serrated "teeth" on these pliers so the designer can manipulate wire with getting minimal marks on the wire. It's a great bargain for the money.

These bent chain nose pliers have a nice small profile and are perfect for small detailed work. They are gentle on wire and leave no tooling marks as long as you use a light hand. The inner surface is very smooth and where the jaws meet are perfectly aligned and flush. Very happy!

Nice slim nose pliers for fine jewellery work. The bent nose makes it easier to see what I'm doing. Comfortable to hold.

These are my absolute favourite pliers. Excellent quality from Beadalon!! I've used them daily for over a year and they're still going strong.

Have purchased in the past and would definitely buy again. I think somebody stole my last pair! LolI like the narrow nose and that this product has no teeth which create ugly plier marks on softer wires.

Perfect for my projects

Buena construcción. Material metálico de buena calidad. Las pequeñas muelles para reposicionar la pinza a la posición abierta las encuentro un tanto débiles. Buen tamaño de la herramienta. Diseño correcto. Balance en la mano correcto.
