Totally agree. I used a vice for a bunch of them. But eventually I found a couple sockets and a ball peen hammer to be quicker and easier. And its good practice for a trail repair.
Buy two 6pt spanners and toss them in thw glove box and forget about them. They take up almost no space and will be there when you need thwm in a pinch.
