I have found that the little ones, are no good for large guage wire. The little ones are mainly for the electronic trade.
I too, would like to find a round nose pliar, with good leverage, and a small round tip.

  A guy in our Chapter went on such a hunt recently and the local hardware store ordered "Channellock 35 4"  "Little Champ" roundnose pliers. They have short strong tips, made in Germany, very nice for making wire loops/knot tying.  Here's a link

    Hi Guys,

    Vigor makes very good tools. I have several that I have used for years. I found their phone number in the library and called them. They sent me a catalog and I ordered what I wanted. I lost it in my last move. It may be listed somewhere online under Optical Tools and Supplies. Expensive but worth every penny.

      I "inherited" one (brand name Vigor) from a retired opthamologist that really work well.  They are so much better that I feel awkward using anything else.

      I talked once with an optical (glasses) dispenser who said that he would be willing to hitch me up with some.  Maybe you can give that avenue a try.

        Where can I get some high-quality, short-jawed round-nosed pliers (for string splicing)?

        I bought a pair from Schaff a few years ago and they are junk.

        Thankee in advance.
