I've had these for a few months, and they were great up until I put a little too much force on them and one of the jaws snapped off. I'd hoped for better since they were made in Italy, not China. I'd give three stars, but I contacted the distributor, Hallo, through their site and they are sending a replacement, so four stars. Just be aware. Otherwise a five-star product.

Much easier to use than the pliers I received with my permanent jewelry kit

Nicely made pliers, made in Italy. The handles are comfortable and I like the spring action of the jaws. It has a spring on the side so you don't have the typical problem of pliers with the spring in the middle where it either pops out or pinches your fingers. The amount of force needed is just right.

I was building an armature for a miniature sculpting project using 24 gauge wire. I needed pliers that would allow me to manipulate tiny features. I bought these Hakko CHP PN-20 tweezer nose pliers and a pair of Xuron tweezer nose 450 pliers to see which I liked better. They are both good pliers and, for this project, I found myself lucky to be able to switch between them.I was initially looking for the pliers that were the smallest at the very tip of the nose. The Hakko pliers won on that front. The jaws are maybe 1.5 mm wide at the tip and each jaw is less than 1mm thick at the very tip. One jaw is slightly thicker than the other.The Xuron pliers are slightly bigger at the tip of the nose and have a longer jaw. The tip of the nose is about 2 mm wide. Each jaw is about 1mm thick at the very tip.Both pliers have well aligned jaws and a comfortable spring-loaded grip. That said, these are both delicate tools. You probably shouldn't use them on your Chevy engine block.

Very pointy chain nose plier, smaller tip (1mm) than most chain nose plier which is what I want.

The tool broke the first day. I was using 20g wire as the tool was I rented and it snapped right off. Terrible

I used this to try and grip and pull out a stuck 3.5mm tip in my laptop's headphone jack. Immediately, and I truly mean on the first attempt at gripping, the ends of the pliers bent. They were also too thick and stubby to fit in properly, anyway, though this isn't a fault with the pliers.On top of this, they're horrifically overpriced (at least on Amazon).

Very unique and specialized tool. I use it to bend the legs of small diodes and resistors on through hole soldering projects. Feels very well made, hefty and precise. Don't hesitate to get it.

These are extremely high quality pointed nose pliers that, unbelievably for the price, are actually made in Italy. They are comfortable to hold, have a nice rebound spring, and have a nice accuracy in the alignment of the mini-jaws. These are great for all types of hobbies, including beading, jewelry making, and working with those new, cool laser-cut metal models that are popping up everywhere (just search "ICONX" on Amazon to pull up dozens of them). If you search the brand on Amazon, you'll find at least three of them, all different, that are the same, or even less, in price. It's hard to believe you can get such quality devices from Italy at such a low price. I'm not saying that they are like Solingen scissors or anything like that, but I would certainly hold these up to some of the best American brands running three times the price.
