I've been using this stripper/cutter for a week now and am quite happy with it. It's well made (USA!) and I expect to get years of use from it.
They are nice and sharp, strip well, and comfortable to use.
My only complaint/feature I would like to see is a locking mechanism to keep them closed when not in use. I have a pair for larger gauge wire that has this feature.
Overall I would absolutely purchase these again if I was in need to replace them, or to buy as a gift for someone.
This is a nice wire stripper, works with the most used wire gauge sizes, and the cutter part of it is good sharp. It has a good spring which returns it home every time it is presses, different from all those cheap ones. Overall good quality wire stripper!.
