Review: Excellent wire strippers for those with patience to learn to use them. - Excellent wire strippers! I prefer these over pre-sized strippers and have had no trouble using them on everything down to 30 AWG. They work great on both solid and stranded wire, even fine strands, but they do require practice to become proficient at using them. I've used a few different brands over the years and the Kleins have always been reliable, and last quite a while as long as you don't abuse them. They are not for cutting.
Review: Works well. You may want model with a spring. - This is like the most basic of wire strippers but does the job. FWIW, electrical wire itself is not as hard as wire for a spring or piano or such. Those hard wires may damage this tool (I have not tried). This tool is great for simple electrical wire. I have good results with both solid core and stranded. Good Things -Small, light, thin. -Can be locked (via screw) to work with a specific gauge of wire -Rivet on pivot will not get lost -Really cheap, if you lose it you're not out $$$ -Finish appears to resist corrosion -Has cutting & stripping areas on tool (most people prefer separate tools, but this works for both) Bad Things -Rivet on pivot (cannot be tightened, replaced etc) -No label for gauge sizes, may not be a big thing for you -Small, if you have big hands this tool may be too small -No spring on the model I chose. Most tools like this 'spring' open, check your model # -No fixed strip length, probably not expected on this cheap of a tool, but better ones to have it
