If the pliers aren't spring loaded they aren't worth buying. Manually opening the pliers to do another strip gets old really fast. Technically twice as fast.

screw cutter makes you thread in the screw and just wasn't impressed
This comment is truly confusing. What similar style bolt cutter doesn't make you screw it in? If you didn't screw it in, you would end up with a lousy, off-level cut, and the threads at the cut end would likely be mangled - making it difficult or impossible to thread into a nut/etc. Threading it in offers a perfect, precision, secure cut.

Ace hardware has the pliers for $15 as well. FYI If you're like me and have rewards expiring or just prefer ace.

In general, does anyone have a recommendation on a good wire stripper for electronics? I have some old wire strippers, but typically just use a scissor as it's usually faster.
Klein tools. We used Klein exclusively with my oilfield company and they are fantastic. And working for a company like that who throws away money like candy at a Halloween parade I have about 8 of them at home lol.

A few comments mention that the cutting blades are surprisingly soft, just FYI. Good deal for the price and something the lifetime warranty should cover, but these are made in Taiwan/China and not U.S.A. like the Kleins.
These are soft, but that's if you try to cut anything else but wire with these. I have a pair in my boat toolbox and used these to install many LEDs and speakers. Best all in one set I've used besides the Klein's wire strippers.

For the average homeowner, is this better or the IRWIN Vise-grip Wire Strippers with auto adjust ($23)?

You're right, the blades are very soft. I'm a union electrician, they definitely don't hold up to everyday use, even if you're only cutting copper. It's nice not having to carry two tools though.

I don't think any actual electrician would be caught dead with these on the job or at home... Sad marketing gimmick from Milwaukee. Of course SDers eat it up lol.

Maybe if you're stripping Romex. If you're just doing switches, outlets, and low vintage stuff then strippers like this are at least as good. But get a pair that have a spring to open the tool if you plan on using them a lot.

I do mostly residential so 14 and 12 is all I need day in and day out so I like this one which does the romex sheath. For the other odd sizes when like thermostat wire and such I just a have a pair of cheapo ones from Harbor Freight.

Here's the one that does romex.

​I casually enjoy a deal and a bit o chit chat. I do not particularly enjoy "deals" that require me to do any amount of unpaid labor or extra steps. The humor was a bit mutually deprecating in this forum, and apparently highly ymmv.

These pliers, btw, are excellent even at full price. I have them on my bench. The fastback knives ime don't deploy so well after a few months so the value there is questionable.

FYI at Home Depot this was priced at $20, $15 on sale. The website is different than the price tag I saw.

So while not an amazing deal, I did get a pair of these and they are great for electrical work.

Was just going to mention this exact thing. I cut a piece of harder wire with the wire cutter and dented the blade on that one cut. Apparently the cutter is only intended for sheeting or softer wire like strand or Romex but not anything harder.
