in, then while holding the buttons in, slide the pliers out.
Method 2: For the "Wrist Flick" method,
firmly grasp one of the handles with the thumb and forefinger and swiftly
flick your wrist in a downward motion. Centrifugal force will slide out
the pliers and lock them in to place, ready for use.
