chain nosed pliers

These were on sale at Michaels. You can click on the pick for a larger view. You can use these instead of flat nosed pliers. It might actually be a little bit easier for you to use if you are doing jewelry. You will notice that the end of the jaws are tapered and the inside of the jaws are smooth. You do not want serrated jaws because it will mark up/scratch what you are working with. A lot of hardware pliers have serrated jaws.
