If what you're after is a quality pair of open barrel crimpers, look no further.The precision of these crimpers is on par with just about any other tool you could buy. Nothing fancy or trick about them, just made to get down to business and do a quality job of the crimping you're doing.They're not cheap but well worth what you'll be paying for such a high quality tool.

Great tool but a little mis-aligned so the crimp isn't always clean.

You may look at the price and scoff but you get what you pay for with this type of crimper. And what you get with the Hozan P-706 is a simple, robust and versatile crimper that does it's specific purpose without fail or frustration everytime and will continue to do so; given you use and maintain them properly. Highly recommend, buy it on sale if you can.

Makes perfect crimps after a little practice.

It's ok, but not great. Works well for tiny metric/ jap electrical connections, but nothing bigger. If you're looking for something similar to the Super Crimper from K&L, this is not it. Although it works good for the really tine connections like for injectors, not so much for regular ones on motorcycles.

Does a great job making crimps. I ordered some nickel plated high heat steel terminals, this crimper handled them with ease. Wish I learned about these long ago, the crimp is way stronger than just crunching a terminal. Feels good in the hand, not like it will fall apart.

I liked this tool, but had seen images of it with the numbers and markings etched, not printed. Some of the markings are already beginning to rub off. I think the older versions of this tool have the numbers and markings etched into the metal.

If you're crimping your own servo connectors these are THE crimpers to get unless you're lucky enough to have found a set of real deal AMP or Dupont crimpers. The key is these have a series of round dies which are required to properly OEM crimp ends with zero fuss. These spit out damn near perfect crimps every time for RC stuff (and do a very good job on standard double-d crimps as well).A little expensive for most folk, but a very good alternative for people that know what good crimper usually cost (100s to k's of dollars).
