Second, we don't need master links. By being creative in our mounting we can tension the chain which is a continuous loop so we don't have to worry about losing a master link during game play.
In addition to all that, once you get the hang of it, I think it's a lot easier to use than the traditional chain breakers .

After buying a Dark Soul chain tool for #25 chain (which is awesome) I was looking for something similar to use on #35 chain. This is exactly it.

The chain removers/installers beat the heck out of a "chain breaker" tool + master link setup.
