Looking at the 01016 and 01016/1A and getting ideas. Not always a good idea reading this forum

Probably a good guess Paul, or something near it.
Until I scrolled through the pages and found the answer had been found, I was going to suggest jewellers pliers, which come in all sorts of funky shapes.
Rounded sections in the jaws of jewellers tools are used for hand forming beads and cylinders from soft metal, which is kind of close to what you suggest.

After seeing Wolfgang's catalogue page, I assumed the 'anvil' section of the jaws would be used to grab through the eye of the split pin as the side of the pliers levers against the nut. The pick ends could either start the operation by opening up the eye a bit or doing the final pull out. I'm having more of a difficulty trying to visualize how the stepped section in the jaws might be used.

Fuzz, I refer you to post #32, wherein Wolfgang has given us a literal translation: "The German name is "Splintenziehzange mit Drahtschneider und Mutterschlüssel", which translates to something like "split pin puller with wire cutter and nut spanner"....."
I presume the stepped part is die schpanner.

I have the idea that the stepped section is for straightening out pins before removing them.
As I see this tool being used:
Pin is gripped in the serated plier jaws and pushed into place; any excess pin length is trimmed off with the cutting slot in the barrel.
The pin is then gripped at the other end and given a twist to separate the two halves, each half is gripped and bent around the nut.
To remove, the curvy bits are used to prise the pin ends from around the nut until the pliers can grip them, they are then pulled around to as straight as possible. The stepped section is then put around the pin as close to the nut as possible and then the pulled away, acting like a sort of die.
The pin is then pulled through either by hooking one curvy bit through the eye and levering out (small pins) or the eye is gripped between the round bits and pulled/twisted/wiggled out by force.
Well, that's how I'd try to use them; if anyone has a pair they'd like to send me for evaluation I'll let youse know if I was right, or if I was talking out of my bottom.
Again....
