I've still got one of the nice AMP crimpers from 10 years ago. The problem
I have with it is the connectors are just a little different (crimps in 2
places) and I can't use the cheap connectors my employer is willing to
buy. I've got one for work that does RJ11 and RJ45 that I've worn out to
the point where I can't cut wire with it (built in cutters/strippers) but
it still crimps fine after 5 years and a few thousand cables. No idea who
made it (just says made in Taiwan) and I remember it coming in a plain
white box.
