I have had the stacked leather washers work loose in the handle of an old Marble’s knife. There was a nut like that on the end of the stick tang, which protruded past the nut, so the driving tool had to have two prongs. I used needlenosed pliers. A lot of motorcycle clutches use similar nuts, which probably have a name that I don’t know. Sometimes you can buy the tool, sometimes you have to make it.

I used to run Jawa motorcycles. One of the old shop manuals had a section with drawings so you could make all the necessary special tools.

My short answer to your question would be “no”.
