*by C***. on September 9, 2016*

There is no substitute for this tool. If you are doing more than a handful of Deutsch solid barrel crimps or plan on crimping Deutsch for any amount of time, GET THIS TOOL! There are much more expensive tools that allow the user to easily change between terminals and wire gauges, but if you are sticking to one gauge or terminal primarily, this tool rocks.Pros:- Solid construction,- holds adjustments well for maximum repeatabilityCons:- More expensive than other tools- Takes a little time to adjust between different size terminals
