By this post, SB, are you encouraging people to use serrated jaws and put severe serration marks permanently on their keywork.

Pivot rods have often been badly damaged by misguided use of serrated pliers, and the resulting file-like rod jams the pivot &/or chew out the hole through the respective post.

Likewise, round-nose pliers exert too much localized force, which easily (permanently) 'bruises' the metal surface.

Would you also consider using pipe tongs to grab the timber body to disassemble when the joints are tight? Hmmm! OK for your own instrument, but the kids' ones probably deserve more respect.
