I think more than one person has told you these are common tools and can be found for around $10 in most bike shops. You've spent more time whining on this forum than it would have taken you to go buy one. PLUS, if you care to solve the problem rather than whine and use your colorful clever variations of foul language, you'd know there's very easy solutions that don't require any special tools.
But the real points are: the KMC link is exactly the same in design and difficulty as the Sram and you don't give a rat's ass, you just want to whine and curse in alternative spellings.
