Crimping device and method of use

A crimping tool comprising:

• a housing having a front wall and a back wall;
• a drive wheel movably positioned within the housing, the drive wheel including an actuation lever for moving the wheel between a first position and a second position;
• a plurality of bars operably coupled to the drive wheel and having a proximal end and a distal end, the distal end of the bars including a chamfered leading edge and an opposing planar surface and the proximal end of the bars including first and second legs forming a proximal opening therebetween;
• a chamber defined by the planar surfaces at the distal ends of the bars, the chamber being reducible in size from a first enlarged size to a second reduced size as the actuation lever moves from the first position to the second position;
• and
• a delivery device holder mounted on the front wall, the delivery device holder comprising a sliding plate slidably coupled to the front wall via at least one engagement member that extends from the front wall through a corresponding horizontal slot of the sliding plate.
