For Christmas, my husband bought me a set of Japanese beading tools.
Lisa Kan was making a set available on her site, so I pointed it out to my husband as a potential Christmas gift. I'm rather impressed he got them since it required a little more work than "click to buy." :D
There are five different tools---four types of pliers and one flush cutter. The tips of the needle and round nose pliers are
tiny. The steel is very hard. Twice I've compressed my way through 24 gauge silver wire. *insert joke about not knowing my own strength* The coiled spring handles means they don't get caught on the edge of my tool bin when I hang them.
Overall, I'm thrilled with them. My one quibble is the handles are all the same color, so I have too look at the actual tool rather just grab the "right" color.
