Dunno about others but I found the Nlm spanner to be crap. Bends easily.Not worth th bother.
I have it should anyone need one.

Koni shocks C spanner fits Morini exhaust nuts. Better than North Leicester tinfoil tool but still not the most sturdy.
Ive often found useful C-spanners in the rusty-tools-50p-box at car boot sales

I removed my exhaust nuts that had been on the bike for at least 30 years by heating the area around them with a torch and then it took very little effort to remove them. Probably why it's suggested to tighten them once the engine is hot. We work on a lot of air cooled Porsche engines at the shop and always heat the aluminum or magnesium case around the stud before removal. It seems to be much kinder to the threads than removing by brute force.
