Found a 20 year old coax crimper in a closet last month

I was cleaning out a storage room at the shop near Nashville and found an old crimper from the late 90s still in the box. Used it on a job last week and honestly it worked better than the new one I bought at Home Depot. Anybody else come across old tools that just hit different?

Oh come on @reeselewis, the new ones just need breaking in, people forget that part.

Used to think it was all nostalgia making people say old tools were better. Then I found my granddad's wire strippers from the 80s, beat up handles and all. Tried them side by side with my Milwaukee ones and the old pair cut cleaner every single time. Something about that old steel just feels more solid.
