Does anyone even have the correct tool for those little spade connectors that are used with the typical two-strand wires? I have a pretty typical cheap AWG-sized stripper/crimping tool, but end up carefully using a knife to strip the insulation and then generally mangle the crimp.

As a process engineer, I know it's not right or proper, like the candle I use to activate the heat-shrink ;-), but I've never seen a tool that works with wires with a gauge as small as these.
