<p>Hello Terry</p>
<p>I use a "Knipex 12 42 195" which is basically the same like
yours. It works nicely with single stranded wires, but has
trouble with shielded cables like in patchfield cabling or in
multicores. For shielded cables I still need this one

<p>And in regards of your eyesight: I use a "Rona magnifier headset"
like this

<span style="font-style: normal;" class="">My bad eyesight is
really giving me a hard time right now. I need new glasses and
that will take months. Meanwhile, it's taking forever to strip a
few wires. I have to look very closely at the stripper to find
the right hole/slot over and over from one end to the next. This
is ridiculous.</span>

<div class="">Is there such a thing as a "reliable"
self-adjusting wire stripper that can do smaller wire, say
18-28AWG? I don't need the electrician's model.</div>

<div class="">I once saw something that works like a cigar
"circumcisor" (as Dr. Gene Scott called it). That would be
even more convenient. It might have been in a synth video.
If I have to I'll buy more than one stripper and set each
for a specific gauge.</div>
