A stripper like this seems so simple, so trivial, that you might wonder if you even need something like it at all. But if you terminate network cables any more often than "very rarely", you should get this tool. It turns what is otherwise an annoying and fiddly part of terminating cables into a quick, fun step. While you can probably use a crimp tool, pocket knife, or pliers to cut the jacket of a Cat5/Cat6 cable, there's a good chance that you'll either nick a wire, make a sloppy-looking cut, or end up cutting at a slight angle. With this tool, you'll never have to worry about that. To use, simply push the plunger in, insert the cable to the depth you need, spin it a couple times, then after removing the tool, the cable will be scored (but not completely cut through) allowing you to easily break off the jacket and remove it without cutting into the insulation on the wires. This tool is ergonomic, rugged, and good quality while being easy and efficient to use. It has survived many drops, and I can't see it breaking easily. I've never needed to use it, but you can also score the cable longitudinally if you need to open a big length of cable up for some reason, so it's a nice feature to have if you need it. $20 might seem like a lot of money to spend on something so trivial that you could technically get done with lots of other tools you already have—but terminate at least four cables, and you won't regret spending the cash one bit. About the review headline: I built a house with my wife, and we installed a *lot* of wiring in there. I terminated at least 45 runs of Cat6 myself without this tool, and in many instances, I nicked a wire or had to struggle to remove the jacket. This tool would have saved me so much time and frustration!

Best radial stripper I've used - get it now. Works like a hot knife though butter, and has a great solid quality feel to it.
