Weidmuller for me.

I use these.

I lost a set, replaced them, then found the originals.

So now I have two.

They’re not for bootlace ferrules.
They are for uninsulated crimps.

No, they're for ferrules.

The PZ 6/5 Crimp Tool is suitable for crimping wire end ferrules with or without plastic collars and features a versatile five-profile crimping head.

I know what it says.
The shape of the jaws is the same as for uninsulated crimps.

So a terminal screw can be tightened or loosened by an uninsulated screwdriver or an insulated screwdriver....... just come back from lunch.....

Top one is for uninsulated terminals.
Bottom for ferrules.

i'd hate to use my bottom to crimp ferrules. it can't even stop farts.

I'd have to agree with Spinlondon the profiles of those Jameson the image are the same as for JST terminals maybe the description is accurate but stock photo isn't

A lot of people I work with have the Weidmüller ferrule crimpers which have the same jaws as the second jaw profile
Or a rotating one size fits all up to 6mm

However they would probably crimp bootlaces ferrules possibly a bit too flat for smaller terminals though

I use the basic knipex pliers type which go from 0.5 up to 16mm as there's nothing to go wrong with them
Plus they're lighter which is a factor for me as we work abroad a lot
