Secure And Efficient: HTS 164P5 6" Non-Slotted Locking Pennington Forceps For Precise Handling Review

you would want to wrap a rubber band around it instead of using the lock feature or you will hurt yourself. it locks wayyyy to tight and it’s not safe. it is ripped where your skin will be held in place and the ripped part is absolutely painful. u less you put some tape on it or something to make it soft but then it’s hard to sterilize and keep clean. probably don’t suggest getting this

It's definitely worth the money seeing how other ones cost wayyyy more. My only issue was the locking portion of it didn't seem to line up correctly, so it was impossible to keep it closed while doing a piercing.

They work amazing. When using them I would recommend using a rubber and around the clamp itself so you don’t have to hold it while piercing.(like how it is in the picture)

The locking feature is great! Awesome value for the price. Exactly as depicted in listing and was delivered on time. Thanks for attention.

I can’t have this on my earlobe for more than 5 seconds on the widest lock, and that’s with putting up with lots of pain. The locking mechanism is WAY too tight so I ended up using the plastic ones that came with my piercing kit! These are trash.

This is so tight! I can’t even use it. Even my friend tried using it, and it was just extremely painful. this is completely useless and would be too painful to use. very unhappy:( i really wanted this to work. i’m better off using no tool at all. don’t buy this!

they lock too tight and it hurts or doesn’t lock at all but they are very sturdy. hard to clean though because of the metal grips on the inside

Has no locking feature, not looking for a locking forceps just something to pickup tools out of soaking bath.perfect The forceps are not suitable for use with particularly thick or heavy materials.

Exactly as shown, I put them into my autoclave immediately ((they don’t come sterilized so you should definitely sterilize them upon receiving these prior to use)) very happy with them and can’t wait to get back into doing piercings again!

I liked that it could hold my earlobe while i tried to pierce it. I will say however i was not expecting it to pinch as much as it does.

definately works correctly. i pierced my conch and lobe piercings with it and there was no pain whatsoever and the clamps too away the pain from the initial piercings

Great product! Haven't used to pierce yet, but I have played with it and I have to say that the self lock is extremely tight, I recommend a rubber band or hair tie, even holding it would work, other than that, good product, will get the job done

Okay, so I wasn’t expecting such a good clamp- but it works wonders! My clients love it, and I even pierced someone’s lip with it and it worked flawlessly! Safe to say that I was impressed!

I use these in sewing. They help me turn things right side out and help me to stuff bears and other stuffed animals. If you use them for this purpose make sure not to get ones that "lock" unless you're performing surgery. My 1st pair did and it didn't work for my purposes but these are perfect.

Bought these for piercing. They lock easily and tightly. The good is that they work SO well to keep the entry/exit holes aligned. The bad is that they are tight enough to cause some discomfort even when clamped at the first lock.Love the length - turns out to be super useful in automotive applications as well. Who knew.

Used these to pierce my nipples and I have no complaints! You can tell they are sturdy and will hold up for the job. Ignore my struggling in the video lol but I locked these forceps on the first, loosest lock and it’s extremely tight. Don’t know why anyone would need it tighter than the first lock, but as for the serrated edges, I used the first lock on my nipples with no bruising or cuts from the serration! Be sure to buy the slotted version for piercings (my mistake) as I forgot and had to…

I bought these to pull my dogs ear hair and these were a joke. Either I got a pair that were defective or they just do not work! They wouldn’t grip the hair at all.

These forceps are incredibly tight. The first clamping setting is enough to leave your ear bruised. I bought these to pierce my nose and couldnt even clamp them closed they were so tight.

I have done all of my own piercings and I lost my old clamp so I bought a new one. In the end this did the job, but where it locked was way too tight, so you have to hold the clamp in place rather than locking it in place because it is too tight everywhere.

I think this is probably a good value for the money. I wanted to use it as a tool. Nothing to do with piercings. The forceps are not very versatile and may not be suitable for a wide range of applications.
