Look perfectly fine.. yet to try them.. double crimps on the way
 
Crimping pliers on temu with crimps for £5

Need to spend 25 but plenty of other stuff like lures to make it up.
It's £15.00 minimum spend when I go onto site.(y)
 
I don't use Crimps, well apart from the Breakaway adjustable ones, and they come with their own little crimping tool.
 
Those look more or less like a bog standard pair of electrical clippers (under £10 from most hardware outlets or fleabay) and some fecker has stuck a fancy rubber grip on.
