What free tools for managing java keystores and security certificates are available around?

I found out that Java has it's own "certificate Store" which is located in a file in the security-folder inside the lib-folder. You could access this from the Java Control Panel -> Security -> Manage Certificates.
Java's list of trusted certificates is stored in its default truststore. This file is usually called cacerts .
Manages a keystore (database) of cryptographic keys, X. 509 certificate chains, and trusted certificates.
We, the Free Software Foundation, use the GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to any other work released this way by its authors. You can apply it to your programs, too.
Try portecle. At least, it has a GUI :-)
EDIT (sept. 2020) Keystore Explorer is in fact more feature complete and more user-friendly.

One more alternative is openssl.
From self experience:
keytool. It worth to keep in mind that it handles only public keys. Do not waste few days to figure it out ;)
Portacle is able to manage private keys. Are there any advantages to use command line tool if you are not trying to use it in some automation scripts than to use user friendly GUI tool?
OpenSSL appeared to be most feature rich as for me. It is able to handle not simplest situation like to create CA and sign some self signed sertificate, i.e. to create sertification chain. Creating Certificate Authorities and self-signed SSL certificates
