Inspired by another thread, which I don't wish hi-jack.

Can anyone recommend a decent, relatively low price punch down tool?

I've had a cheap one which was junk and a brand name (can't remember which) from which part of the actual punch sheared. I don't terminate data modules regularly, but it can be a considerable number on the occasions that I do. Don't want to spend a load on Krone, but surely there must be something reliable at a halfway reasonable price.

The price does vary for the 2A inserter, just had a look they all look the same but the prices are variable, I would say buy one in the mid range price. CK do one for £22 and the lowest price was £3ish.
I still have my BT one but they all look the same so as for quality cant advise.

That's the problem - they're all pretty much clones of one another. There'll be considerable differences in quality, but nothing that stands out from pictures on a website.

Had been looking at the CK tool and note that reviews are generally favourable. Might just go for one of those.
