Customer Reviews
These are nice, lightweight, but don't feel cheap or flimsy
The grip is nice, they are plenty sharp, and I am very glad that I purchased them. The spring action is just right, comes back easily, but no major snapping back or sticking in the down position. you can lock them closed for transport in the tool box.

Does the job, but...
Although these work liked I'd expected, I had two concerns about them:
1: I'm working with speaker wire labelled as 14AWG, but that setting on the stripper wound up cutting some wire off the inside. Moved to the larger 12AWG setting and was able to cut through with no problem; I can't be sure whether the issue is with this item, or with the speaker wire itself.
2: The packaging for this item states "WARNING: This product contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer" with no further information. I'll be, at minimum, washing my hands well after each use.
These got my project done, but I'd have preferred something with more accurate gauge measurements and no warning that it's going to give me cancer.

Took forever to arrive
These are nice basic strippers, but it took longer for this gift to arrive than any other present I ordered from Amazon.

Hnady little wire stripper/cutter
This cutter/stripper is a well made little unit. It's not an all-in-one tool in the sense that it has a limited range of wire sizes it can accommodate, so check the sizes before you buy to ensure they match your needs. The cutter it very sharp and slices easily through copper wire. The little latch lock keeps the tool compact when not in use. The handles are a tad thin for my liking, and it probably the only downside for me, but I guess that's a personal thing! Overall, a solid unit that gets the job done!

Quality
I have a Klein from Home Depot that cost $6 more, and this tool is just as good. Buy it.
