Whether you’re fishing, making jewelry, or just trying to add another key to your keyring, you might find split ring pliers handy. Squeezing the handles causes the curved jaw to split open the ring, and the pliers keep it open as long as you keep applying pressure.
Xuron manufactures the pictured pair of split ring pliers. The lightweight pliers will open split rings down to size #00. They use a non-slip proprietary rubber for the handle grips and mold it into a shape that is comfortable to hold.
You can find the Xuron pliers online starting at $10 before shipping. If you’re looking for a bargain, there are cheaper brands out there.

This is a great split-ring pliers. You can spend more money for heavy-duty stainless steel split-ring pliers meant for fishermen, but these are inexpensive, work superbly, and have precision machined tips. Like all Xuron pliers, they’re stamped steel and made in the USA; they’re much better than the cheaper tools.
