Abstract
A separable pliers having a pair of arms separably hinged together. They may be separated only when the handles are far enough apart. A lip on one handle, and a hook on a bias spring integral with the other handle engage one another to restrain the handles from opening that far unless and until the spring is bent to release the hook from the lip, after which the arms can be separated.
