I have a lot of ferrules to crimp:

Are there specialized tools? I don't get any usable hits on Google. If not,
what are the best pliers to use?

I'd rather not spend $50+ on a specialized tool, but < $50 at an easy place
like Sears I would do. I do have a decent collection of shop/home pliers
though. Vice-grips come to mind as having a nice leverage ratio.

thanks,
