Good tool. It works.

Eh!

Not a professional grade tool. Cheaply made, small, jaws slightly mismatched, made in China. No provision for removing old nock points. It does however squeeze on a nock point.

Perfect Pinch

Perfect for the job of nocking strings and removing nocks if needed. Good to have in your bag with a few nocks just in case MR. Murphy shows up!

Right on

Very easy to use and great for a beginner just learning how to do all this along the way.

Not Pro but still a good tool.

One of the essential tools in an archer's kit should be a pair of nock pliers, also known as nock crimpers. This one in particular is low-cost and made in China. It is spring-loaded (a feature I recommend), durable, and compact. The one drawback is that it only works with small and medium diameter nocks. Other more high-end pliers will have three diameter options. Since most archers read more stick with bow strings in the low to mid-sized ranges this version usually does the trick and saves a buck in the process. The thing to remember with any pliers is to gently crimp the knock, move the pliers a quarter turn, gently crimp again and repeat until snug. This prevents the brass nock from developing sharp edges and burrs.

Works Okay

Put them on okay, just hard to take them off

Performed Well

I have used the pliers on two occasions to install nock points (medium size). I was able to crimp the nocks on without incident. I was careful to gently squeeze the pliers while going around the nock, and then I would gradually squeeze a little firmer as I rotated the crimping surface of the pliers arond the nock. This method seemed to work best in securing the nock to the string.

Yes they will. Carefully place one of the jaws in the crease of the nock(assuming you are using a brass nock). The other jaw should be in the nock itself. Lightly squeese and twist, the idea is to pry open the nock without damaging the bowstring.
