Where can I get the best value on some split ring pliers?

As an NAFC member I signed up to test products and write up a short review
of the items received. After testing I get to keep the product. So far
they have sent me battery operated blinking rubber lizards which I have yet
to fish with, so I haven't done an evaluation on them yet, and some X-Ring
split rings and split ring pliers. I have palyed witht he pliers and ring a
little bit so far. I find the shape of the plier not to be ideal for
splitting the ring as the pointed jaw goes beyond the lower jaw forcing you
to put the split ring in at an angle. I see to possible solutions. The
lower jaw could have friction goves cut into it to prevent slipping, or the
lower jaw could be slightly elongated so allow for straight grip of the
split ring.
