Default Hex Style Wire Crimper

Anyone know of a good Hex style wire crimper for 8-20g wire connectors? I just have a generic crimper at the moment and i HATE that thing, I'm better off using a punch and hammer than that POS tool lol.

From what I've read online the hex style offers better electrical flow. Don't know how true that is but I like the look of the hex crimp better anyways than the POS tool I currently have lol.
