I like that, very handy if needed at the roadside.
I can't believe anyone would buy a tool to close the links. If they won't close with a light manual pull then I move the connector to the run of chain from cassette to top of the chain ring and with the wheels on the ground just push on the pedals to snap the link into place, simples
Yep, used both this and the chainring trick when changing a chain the other day. Still be a time when the tool is needed and no doubt better for the chain.
