Shoutout to the old coax crimpers I should have tossed years ago

I was finishing a job in a tight attic last month and my old crimper slipped, ruining a connector. I had to climb down, drive to the supply house, and buy a new pack. That little mistake cost me an extra hour and about $15 in parts and gas. I should have replaced that worn-out tool a long time ago. Anyone have a favorite brand for crimpers that last?

Wait, you drove all the way to the supply house for just one connector? I would have been digging through my truck for ten minutes hoping to find a spare in the bottom of a tool bag. That drive is the worst part, it turns a tiny fix into a whole trip.

Ugh, I finally switched to Klein and love them.
