They the black and yellow ones? Normally buy from supermarket

Yellow and black are the paler h type and red and black are the darker b type iirc

i detest pointless tools (i dont own any) ... olive removers etc.

Got to disagree on that - now. Never had any until a few months ago when I had a few jobs replacing rad valves in houses. SO much quicker!

A definite yay for olive removers!

I've got the monument olive cutters 8,10,15,22 but still used adjustable to rattle a 22mm olive and nut of this morning

Complete rhubarb.
Only useful about ten percent of time. Usually the nuts are overtightened and the pipe is strangled by the olive. They will only come off a straight pipe and I can use my grips for that just as quickly

Best would be my Record pipe benders that my dad bought me when I started my apprenticeship. Still going strong.

Worst would be cheap hacksaw blades.

Best tool: Milwaukee m18 sds. So handy to just pull out and whack out a hole. Saving time setting up leads and will drill pretty much anything considering its weight.

Favourite: love the newer rothenberger waste slices. Fly through in one turn leaving a perfectly cut end.

Worst tool: anything from hold on! AVOID
