I had a chainring bolt that was too long, and I brought it into my local hardware store to grind it down for me. I showed him the nut and this tool. Mine isn't Campagnolo but it's nearly identical. The guy behind the counter was taken aback at how specific a tool it is. I told him the bike world is full of very specific tools unlike general purpose tools.
