If you have ever tried to repair or shorten a zipper without the right tools, you'll appreciate this nipper. Use it to pull off unwanted teeth. The return spring action makes repetitive motion easy, while its rubber coated handles give you a sure grip. This tool can also be handy in jewelry making or for household repairs.
I haven't actually used this tool yet. I bought it because it was recommended in a zipper repair class that I took. These appear to be well-made and solid, and the price was very good.
