Customers are mixed about the lock. Some mention it has a great locking mechanism, and the locking tab is nice. However, others say that the lock no longer holds them closed, is poorly made, and is too tight.

Customers are mixed about the ease of use of the wire stripper. Some mention it's easy to use with one hand, and convenient. However, others say that it'll be frustrating to work with because the handles reluctantly and slowly open.

7 customers mention3 positive4 negative

Customers are mixed about the size of the wire stripper. Some mention it's a small, compact size with lots of features, while others say the sizing is off and frustrating to work with.

"...The 16 gauge was too big and didn't cut all the way through, but the next step down was too small and took a bunch of the copper wire along with it...." Read more

"...It's not bad though. I like the shape of it, it is more conformed to fit in your hand. This was a great price and cuts and strips wire well...." Read more

"...Also, the latch to keep the tool closed, too tight. I had to hold the wire cutter with one hand and move the lever with the other hand...." Read more

"...These fit inside that description perfectly." Read more

Didn't Hold Up Over Time - Won't Close and Strip
2 Stars
Didn't Hold Up Over Time - Won't Close and Strip
These didn't last and quickly got to the point that the lower parts of the jaws catch and won't close and strip the wire. If you twist the jaws and manipulate them you can finally get them to close but this is such a pain on a ladder that I threw these away and ordered a pair of Klein wire strippers. Lesson learned.
