I reiterate my recommendation to check out Pianotek's tool...more=
 than strong enough!   It is not an electronic repair tool...

I have found that the little ones, are no good for large guage=
 wire. The little ones are mainly for the electronic trade.
I too, would like to find a round nose pliar, with good leverage,=
 and a small round tip.

A guy in our Chapter went on such a hunt recently and the local=
 hardware store ordered "Channellock 35 4"  "Little Champ"=
 roundnose pliers. They have short strong tips, made in Germany,=
 very nice for making wire loops/knot tying.  Here's a link

Hi Guys,
 
Vigor makes very good tools. I have several that I have used for=
 years. I found their phone number in the library and called=
 them. They sent me a catalog and I ordered what I wanted. I lost=
 it in my last move. It may be listed somewhere online under=
 Optical Tools and Supplies. Expensive but worth every penny.

I "inherited" one (brand name Vigor) from a retired opthamologist=
 that really work well.  They are so much better that I feel=
 awkward using anything else.
 
I talked once with an optical (glasses) dispenser who said that=
 he would be willing to hitch me up with some.  Maybe you can=
 give that avenue a try.

Where can I get some high-quality, short-jawed round-nosed pliers=
 (for string splicing)?
 
I bought a pair from Schaff a few years ago and they are junk.
 
Thankee in advance.
