lying pliers

Pliers are a simple tool used for establishing a strong grip, but Pliars are incapable of gripping strongly because their jaws are restricted by simple springs that reduce their ability to exert any significant pressure.

Use them when you want to hold delicate items such as glassware or to pick up a wary garden frog you want to place in a bucket of water then transport to the nearby river for release, a process which I have just completed.

An application just crying out for a well-designed trebuchet ...

Gentle lies should have uncomfortable pressures.

That would be the opposite idea, which is ok too. ie tweezers that can crush rocks.
