Hello Hobby 3-in-1 Steel Craft Tool – Precision Cutter, Scoring Tool & Piercer for DIY Jewelry Making Crafts

it is pretty handy tool and easy to use. Somehow I have a prior style of the same tool, of yesteryears, the metal was much better than the today; but better, compared to usual craft store item.

I make jewelry and go through these pliers like crazy. they work perfectly for me and the price point makes it easy to replace when needed.

Bought the product to help me pry open jump rings to make nicer bracelets; works great! Also helps for sorting through beads since the pliers come to a smaller tip.

I like that this is a multi tool and can do several things so it saves space. The only thing I wish it included was a crimper as I am using this for jewelry making / wire wrapping.

The grips are barely glued to the pliers. infact I didn't know they were since the first time I used them they started slipping off of them. durability of the pliers is kind of bad even for a store branded item. I'm mostly just having fun with paperclips and it's already almost grooved the tips. the cutting side has started to dull already. I would still recommend this item to people who aren't trying to be super serious about crafting. it's not a bad bargain if you plan on getting the basics down and then upgrading to something much much better when you get an understanding of what you want.

Tends to leave tool marks on the wire and it is sometimes difficult to get the cutters where I need them. But it is a great tool for the price.

Problems: metal finish is rough and poor quality, will scratch jewelry and, most annoying, the tips do not come together completely (there is a space in the middle). If you are trying to handle small diameter wires or rings, they slip out. I purchased this to open and close jump rings, which was a big mistake. It isn't advertised specifically to do that, but all I needed were plyers to grip and I figured the other uses may come in handy later as I just got into jewelry making. The rounded tips are meant so you can create loops but they aren't very long and, again, the metal is rough, which could result in the scratching or stripping of any finish on a wire or ring you are working with. I did not try the cutting aspect, but I doubt you'll get much precision with this since the cutting area is far down into the thicker part of the plyer. So the plyer is made to do 3 things but it is lousy at doing all three things. As such, you are better off going to a craft store to buy individual plyers that will for specific needs.

this item has very rough edges, so be careful using it. It does not crimp your beads well and is not easy to use.

First of all I think I ordered 2 different pliers but got 2 of the same. The first actually wouldnt cut wire and round points did not curl wire right.

These are describe as a 3 in 1 yet only functions properly as a needle nose pliers! Everything else you attempt to do with them will cause additional work!! Not what I had hoped for!!
