lucky you. talking about soldering tools, usually what tweezer you use? I starting to go down the hole on tweezers, since I do a lot of SMD work.
one of my friend from an electromagnetic microscope research group introduced me to the rolls royce of tweezer since they work with nano stuff. gosh, its so damn good compared to cheap tweezers. but price also quite steep for a tweezer, can easily cost from rm200 to rm500+

if one day you feel adventurous, can try Dumont/Fontax tweezers big fan of style 5 tweezers, extremely sharp tips yet solid to hold and very manoeuvrable. usually I use Fontax Taxal style 5 ones but currently they are in JP. now waiting for a Dumont and cheap VETUS style 5 tweezer to arrive.

hopefully the VETUS one is reasonably good since its very affordable (rm20+) compared to the Swiss made ones (rm200+)

VETUS have quite a few series, try to go for their JP series although they are pricey compared to the rest of them. Just ignore the other VETUS series, should be total garbage as I had two random VETUS style 1 tweezers, their tip bents so easily, they belong in the trash bin.

The one I bought is a VETUS 5sa-jp, typical style 5 tweezer

Inb4, VETUS also have a lot of fakes on the market

Another garbage tweezer would be Goot, style 4 tweezer with such tip

Many diff style of tweezer, different styles for diff application.

Apparently this is more popular with watchmaking, electron microscopy, medical communities.
