We are frequently asked to recommend a tool for making medium clasps and ear wires. THESE are THE ONES!
You can spend less and you can spend way more, but these are JUST RIGHT. At Unkamen, we affectionately call these, "Smiling Cyclops" and they are essential for efficiently making high quality clasps, ear wires and links with consistent sizes.
These pliers work best with Dead Soft and Half Hard 20-16 gauge wire

AND, we will professionally prep these for you so you are ready to work as soon as you open your package! We hand file, smooth with emery paper and finish with a dremmel to make YOUR plier work smooth and give you long lasting performance.
When you are ready to address hand fatigue, consider our Deluxe Cushioned Plier Grips. These are not "hobby - grade" grips but professional ones made specifically for people that have to work with pliers all day. They are made from heavy - duty PVC and are latex free so they will last and not irritate anyone with a latex allergy (like several team members - these work well for them).
We am frequently asked about sore hands, fatigue and even numbness. Of course, discuss these symptoms with your family physician, take frequent breaks and use good ergonomics when working with pliers.
