A Korg GA-1 tuner can go down to 5 semitones flat. It's quite common in the heavier styles of rock music to downtune a few semitones.

(Speaking from long experience as gigging guitarist and bassist). The GA-1 tuner I mentioned isn't a true chromatic tuner, but its ability to shift the standard guitar tunings down several semitones is very useful. In modern metal genres C or B tunings are probably more common than the standard EADGBE, so this isn't just an edge case.
