I just received a set of these loopset pliers and I have to say, I thought my d loop was really tight, but these pliers work great. The loop was easily made much tighter and I like the way it holds the looped string together as it tightens. The only thing I noticed that should be a concern to the manufacturer is a few sharp edges that should have been deburred. They aren't in the grooves where the string or loop is grabbed, but on the outer egdes of the tool...if someone wasn't careful and bumped the tool against their string in the wrong place it my set could possibly cut a few strands. A little emery cloth and the burrs will be gone though. I think it is a worthy product for sure and the price is right!
