cut clasp nail punch

[JanJonWestWales]

Hi, does anyone know if there is such a thing as a specialist nail punch for cut-clasp-floorboard nails??
The punch i'm using has a flat face, which tends to slip off the nail when trying to recess it, producing holes around the nail !!
I would like a nail punch with a concave face, or one that is specicaly designed for floorboard nails.
thanks much

You could use another nail placing the 'hook' part on the head and hit tother end and that should do the trick...

They are commonly enough available for me to have a set.

They are equally useless when you have a job which needs flat punches (which I don't have)
