I am sure I am not unique, but I have never used anything other than my hands to take them apart. They get tricky especially when dirty, but you can bend them in and out of plane and they usually loosen up pretty quick and open pretty easily. If it is a new chain, don't use a chain tool, it will catch up to you. Chains have a habit of giving out when you are out of the saddle sprinting up a short incline or from a red light start. It is impressive how fast you crash in these scenarios. So in summary, figure out how to use it right or maybe get a shop to do it for you.
