I have one that has had the snot beaten out of it for over ten years and it
still works great.
The "notch" on the bottom of the tool is a wire cutter so you can cut and
strip with one tool.

These catalog stores carry them - about $60 but you will have it forever.

Subject: [motm] [Q] Wire Stripping


With the ever increasing number of DIY PCBs being made available, more
people are doing more work that Paul usually does for us. One of these
chores is stripping (and cutting and tinning) wires. This has never
been a strong point for me. One thing that looks appealling is the
heated wire stripper, although I have never used one.

I tend to have trouble with plier type strippers, especially when it
comes to smaller guage wire. I tend to strip wire manually if it is
big (like electrical stuff for your house).

So does any one have any suggestions? Or what works well (easily and
consistently) for everyone else?

Thanks!
Shemp
