Can anyone recommend a decent chain splitter

Park Tools Mini Brute
Cheap and works better than my big toolbox ones.

I always thought those two were mutually exclusive.

I've used cheap ones like that Halfords one and bent the lever, buy the Park one.

My mini tool has one which works a treat...

I too have one on my Multi-tool.Topeak Alien2 and it's worked perfectly since 2008 8)
Very sturdy well made tool.

I also have one of them. Top bit of kit.

I have a Topeak chain tool on the now discontinued Power 16 and a Park Chain Brute and both work fine.
The Chain Brute can be firmly clamped in a vice without damage (unlike the kind with a cylindrical handle) which is sometimes useful.

Got one of these. Only used it 2 or 3 times but does the job nicely and less fiddly than the ones on mini tools
