I have a selection of Hale tips that I got fro the estate of a deceased tuner, I have never used the smallest one.
So there must be some around.
I can't remember the last time I used a different sized tip, than my #2 Hale.
Hale tools were really good.

I was working on an older English grand this summer; my Watanabe 1/0 tips flopped all over the place (and would have damaged the tuning pins if I used one of them). I had an older APSCO one piece tuning head/tip that was passably functional but still way too wobbly.
