I love a good stripper. Especially when at a discount.

I have these, they work great for some wires like soft silicone, but I've had a lot of trouble with 12awg Romex wires and end up having to spin the tool to cut all the way around the wire, something I shouldn't have to do. Maybe I need to change blades; guess I'll look those up and report back

Some people seem to swear by this style, others seem to hate it. Plenty of cheaper versions from other brands starting around $10 if you want to try this style before committing to Knipex.

Nice deal, thank you for sharing. Very tempted but I need more range on the thinner/smaller wire side.

12 52 195: 0.08 - 16.0mm2 or AWG 28 - 6
12 42 195: 0.03 - 10mm2 or AWG 32 - 8

This is the model I was actually searching out, and it caters more to Romex, but it's $30 more

I have this tool. It does not work well on larger gauge wires at all and I don't mess around with much small gauge wire so I don't ever use it. I'm sure it's a good tool for the right person but keep that in mind. I would say it's useful on 22-30 gauge wires. Anything else, I grab a different pair of strippers. I actually prefer another style Knipex stripper that are cheaper. Link below

I mess with smaller wires and mostly use

I think I have an automatic stripper somewhere in the box, but do not entirely trust it. Automatic strippers are good for a production work where you need to do a whole bunch of wires in a repeatable manner and willing to experiment a bit to make sure the tool works as expected.

I love knipex but I don't think I can justify $67 wire strippers

Can you justify $67 German strippers?


In for Nein.

Knipex typically has better alloys in their cutters/strippers. Clean cuts and durable edges that make work easier, and the quality of the work better. A lot of even name brand cutters that compete have their edges get chewed up in just a couple of uses when knipex will keep on going.

That's speaking as a brand though, as I haven't owned or used this particular model.
