I've been using something that looks almost identical from Panduit for years. Panduit PWT75 for 3/4" loom Panduit PWT50 for 1/2" loom Looks like PowerBraid tool comes in 1" as well, something I have not found from Panduit. While PowerBraid wants $20+ per tool (the 3 tool set sells for something like $66), you can buy the Paduit tools from Mouser for $8.84 and &6.23 respectively. Alas if you are looking for the snazzy orange color, the Panduit tools only come in white. Neat tool but certainly nothing new.

I guess if you're on the clock, it'd be worth it, but for the average guy? Also, it seems it's made especially for Painless' loom, so I'm not even sure if it will work with anything else.
