### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice cable stripper
*by D***. on January 12, 2025*

Most guys have Greenlee cable strippers in the shop. I am partial to knipex tools. This tool works well and is just as easy to use. If you aren’t familiar: there is an adjustable blade to set your cut depth. Test it out on the end of your cable if you aren’t sure. Peels insulation right off.
