Crimping pliers include a clamping assembly including a left jaw and a right jaw, a control mechanism, and a rotating button mechanism. The left jaw includes a left connecting portion and a left head. The right jaw includes a right connecting portion and a right head. The control mechanism drives the clamping assembly to switch between a clamping state and an open state. The rotating button mechanism includes a first connecting plate connected to the right connecting portion, an eccentric shaft, a rotating button connected to the eccentric shaft, and a limiting structure connected to the rotating button to limit a rotating range of the rotating button. The first connecting plate is rotatably connected to the left connecting portion through the eccentric shaft. The rotating button adjusts a distance between the left connecting portion and the right connecting portion by driving the eccentric shaft to eccentrically rotate.

The present invention provides an open-close device, including a first member, a second member, a third member and a fourth member; the second member is rotatably connected to the first member, the third member is rotatably connected to the first member, the fourth member is rotatably connected to the second member and rotatably connected to the third member; the open-close device further includes an angle adjusting device which is provided at a joint between the third member and the first member, for adjusting the bending angle of the third member with respect to the first member.

A hand tool may include a head section defining a first grip portion, a handle section and a second grip portion. The head section includes a top jaw and a bottom jaw defining the first grip portion. The handle section includes a top handle and a bottom handle. The top jaw and the bottom handle forming a first unitary piece, and the bottom jaw and the top handle forming a second unitary piece.
