When that change is made I'll retire that cheap piece of junk.

The blaum eBay tool is fine for a few springs on the 126, I’d want to clean and regrease the screw after each use, but it’s a robust tool.
The klan. I have is smoother, and of a higher grade of steel, also, it comes with a long and a short screw assembly, for clearance in 124’s etc. But for the 126, here are no issues with the Baum.
