Review (2/5): Useless for anyone who lacks hand strength
This item is useless for all except those who have extraordinary hand strength. I purchased these pins for an older person only to find that she can not open them. They are very strong and difficult to use for anyone who has limited use of his ands because of age, accident, or arthritis. If they are meant for someone who needs help taking the cap off the pickle jar, don’t buy them!
