Default Rear Brake Hose Removal - Advice appreciated

Snap-On fuel line wrenches win hands down compared to Craftsman, they grip on all six points of line nut vs. 5 points on Craftsman. How do I know? I've rounded off line nuts with Craftsman and never with Snap-on.

Snap On line wrenches are absolutely the best, I have a set from the late 80,s/early 90,s and they still work excellent today. Plus they are not clunky like other brands.

There is a line up and test of every imaginable flare wrench on youtube... the snap on wrenches have the least amount of slack and if not mistaken won in every category except one, in which it placed second.
