I had no idea Channellock was a brand name.
Some tools you can get by with using generics. Others...not so much. I once purchased a cheap set of wire strippers. A few days later, I went back for the better ones.
for the C-Clips I use a pair of Kleen conicle tipped needle nose. I took a triangle file and notched the tips about 1/8 of an inch from the bottom so the c-clip has a grove to rest in while under tension. Cool thing about them is if I need to roll a lead from a component to create a small loop, they are my go-to pair for both jobs.
