Jewelry Making Tools Kit from Kerro Outlets - Bonus Jewelry Pouch Now Included - Includes 12 Quality Jewelry Making Tools in a Zippered Case - for Adults Who Wish to Make Their Own Jewelry

First of all, I am *not* a jewelry maker. I'm not even a beginner jewelry maker. In fact, I'm a jewelry *breaker* - I bought this kit because one of my favourite necklaces had a jump ring break, and I was bereft, and wanted to fix it.Now, one of the first things I came across in my Amazon search were the jump ring openers, like this Beadsmith Jump Ring Opening and Closing Tool For Jewelry Makers and this JSP Jump Ring Opener. They seemed pretty nifty, but I knew I was going to need other tools (like, little pliers and stuff). Also, the Beadsmith jump ring opener (which is highly rated) is an add-on item. The JSP one (which is also highly rated, but across fewer reviews) is also highly rated, but a bit more expensive at just north of $6.00. So, I figured I'd find a jewelry making/repairing kit, and then do the add-on or, if the kit wasn't enough to push me into add-on land, I'd buy the one from JSP.Then I started looking at the various kits. And this kit here was by far the best value for what you get with it..and that's when I noticed...*it includes a jump ring opener!! Huzzah!To be safe (in case I couldn't reuse the broken jump ring) I also purchased a set of jump rings. I ordered this set: LolliBeads Jump Rings, because it not only includes jump rings in gold, silver, *and* bronze, but it also includes matching lobster clasps in all three colours! (Flashback to Ross telling Rachel that he's her lobster!)Well, I am thrilled to say that my favourite (well, one of) necklace was easily repaired using the jump ring ring, and the original jump ring, and I couldn't be more pleased with this little kit!By the way, I have no idea what the little velvet pouch that comes with it is for, but the little box of jump rings and lobster clasps fits *perfectly* in it!

I'm in love with this little tool kit! I bought it not for jewelry repair necessarily (although I'm sure that need will arise eventually), but rather for those little odd 'n end jobs that you can never seem to find the right sized small tools for. I used one of the small needle tools the other day, for example, to clean out the washer fluid nozzles on the hood of my car. Worked like a charm.

This is terrible. The tools in this kit I typically use are the two types of pliers and the wire clipper and I am constantly having to reassemble the rubber that slips from the handles which tweaks the spring out of place. The only tool I like, but even that will pinch you if you are not extremely careful, is the tiny scissor tool. I give it a "Don't bother."

I purchased this kit after buying and returning a kit to one of the chain craft stores. The reason for the return was that the handles were a cheap plastic, one of which was already broken when I opened the package. So, I went on Amazon and found this kit, which I have now used to make two necklaces. The quality is much better. I am new to jewelry making, but this kit fits my needs.

I have never made jewelry ... However, I was hoping to repair a favorite single earring, thought it would be simple enough. Don't take it out on the tools .... I say operator error.

Not thrilled with purchased. Items were sloppily packaged, tools seem flimsy, one was broken upon arrival.

I am very happy to have this tool set. I use all the pliers every time I set down to make jewelry. It is a good set of tools for a reasonable price, and the company is a good company who employ good people. I would recommend this tool kit to a friend. In fact, I ordered two tool kits by mistake, and I gave one to an artist friend! He is very happy with it.

Great tools for the price. I'm sure you could get much nicer tools if you want to fork out the cash. The flat pliers in this set came with some jagged edges, like it came out of a mold and was not smoothed. I just took a grinder to it and smoothed it out. The cutters are awesome, grips feel nice, Cutter/scissors thing seems to be good quality. Totally worth it!
