Hi,
I''ve seen a lot of praise here for the look of split/clawlike prongs, like those Leon Mege uses. But aren''t they also dangerous to the stone and to clothing? Isn''t it easy for them to snag on clothing (or whatever) and then get pried up, making stone loss and damage more likely?
Here are some examples of what I''m talking about :

I hope I''m wrong, because I really like the look, but what do you all think?
Thanks!
