Heard of "Wilde" snap ring pliers?

I tried disassembling a 727 with the snap ring pliers I used the last time I did one and failed miserably. I don't know how I got it done with those cheap things, but this one wasn't coming apart with them. I do have a good pair of lock ring pliers that I got from NAPA, but pins on the cheap tools wouldn't stay in the snap ring holes and didn't spread wide enough to get them.

I bought the best Harbor Freight offered this time, a huge improvement. Not as nice as those Wilde models, but still pretty good.
