Hmmmm... I'm pretty much sold.
On the review I watched they put a ferrule on and crimped.
Why?

You can put ferrules on stranded cables like flex where the copper is made up of lots of thin strands. The thin strands are easily damaged when you’re tightening a terminal screw so by adding a ferrule you get a more mechanically durable connection that provides a better electrical connection too.

These are great tools. I have the spring loaded ones. Not sure if that's better but I've got used to it. The smooth tips are great for holding a copper conductor if you need to move it carefully.

Treat yourself to the knipex multifunction pliers. You won’t regret it.
