    the best i have found are the park ones.

    but i prefer the Knipex cutters and use something else for the cable ends.

    if you are talking about crimpers for the cable ends.

    I too use Knipex cutters and the best crimper is a pair of Mole Grips - you can adjust them so you get a nice flat crimp,
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..
