Designer Bead Opener/Awl

This tool provides an easy and efficient way to cover Crimp Beads after crimping! The Bead Opener/Awl comes complete with Sterling 3mm and 4mm Seamed Beads, retail ready packaged. Simply insert the awl into the bead, place it into the acrylic block, push, and the bead opens. Remove, flip, and insert into other bead hole to fully open the bead. Cover a crimped connection with the opened bead and carefully close with Chain Nose Pliers (pages 106, 108, 109, 112, 113) or the Mighty Crimper Tool's outside jaw (this page) or the EZ-Crimp Pliers (this page). Once covered, the connection disappears into the jewelry design. Kit contains 20 of each of 3mm and 4mm Sterling Silver Beads (page 39).
