Thanks, other than the crimp tool which I was very happy to have for rig making, still not sure on what the "operation Split ring" part is, and what them slits are on the back of pliers? I see lots of things that have grooves, and shapes put into their design, and think most people dont question what they are actually for.

Thanks. Dan.
