Yo Bailey,
there is a term I like to use when all else fails, hence the use of real tools for the right job, but it goes like this " when all else fails, use a bigger Hammer ! "
cheers, SL

That's a great idea.  Use Brute Force when all else fails!  Yep, NO nipple could withstand the force from modern tools!

BK, while it's not a true anti-seize oil/paste, the teflon in BreakFree has worked well enough that my cones (Civil War time term for nipples) have always come out with any of the 3 nipple wrenches I have.

I`ve never found a store bought nipple wrench ..made for B/P Pistols that would hold up to real life usage .....The answer is to make one ....

The wrench's that Thunder R. has are as close as I have seen to being the best.  I have tried them all--one end to the other.  Don't know what they are made of, but they don't "wallow" out & fit real snug.  Won't work on Rugers hex heads tho. :(
