What are jin pliers used for?

Bonsai Jin Pliers are used for crushing the bark on branches to make bark removal easier in the process of creating jins. These tools are also very handy for jobs such as tightening guy wires and tightening tree tie down wires during repotting.

Can i use regular pliers instead of bonsai jin pliers?

technically yes, but the issue with regular pliers builders use is they are bulky. Bonsai jin pliers are specially designed to work in and around the trees branching and have a much more narrow jaw. The handles are also elongated on the larger size to give you a much stronger bite.

Is there a difference between Japanese jin pliers and other jin pliers?

Yes, it comes down to the quality of the steel. Japanese manufacturers use genuine Japanese carbon steels which have superior strength, Other brands manufactured else where are generally alloy steel which is weaker. Some jobs we use jin pliers for requires a high amount of force and bite on the jaws. You want a set that can handle this for years on end.
