Dismantling Knife-1000V Insulated

Use this often on SO cord works great for making drop cords. Stripping jacket off of cords is easy with this.

Works perfect. Nice item.

Worked great for stripping live service cable for new electrical panel instal

I have used this several times and really like it. When trying to strip the protective coating off UF wire, it can be a pain. You can’t inadvertently nick the insulation on the wire or you run the risk of messing everything up. It seems stupid but after you have hundreds of feet of wire buried, thes ends become so much more critical - maybe it is just me but i feel like if i screw up i am going to have redo the wire in the trench...now i know in my logical mind this isn’t the case. Typically, i will use a razor or my everyday carry knife. While these both work the knifed tool excels thanks to the ergonomics of the handle, the compact blade in sort of a bird’s beak configuration, and of course the sharpness of the blade. I feel like i have a lot of control of the knife. So is this a must buy like a pair of wire strippers? Of course not, but if you install a good deal of direct burial wire and are frustrated with the time consuming process of stripping the coating it is worth a chance.

Top quality and very durable. This tool is well made!

I can’t believe I didn’t have this all along

great knife

I have been using this tool in the dismantling of 200 AMP URD splices & it works great. No damage to URD cable with practice & some help from a torch.

Removing the sheathing from larger cables often results in damaging the jacket on the inner cables when using a knife. This tool lets you see what you are doing while you strip the sheathing off and works on medium Tom large size multi conductor cables.

Useless on large 1 diameter cable w/ 1/8 jacket.
