I have one of those automatic strippers with the clamp on the left and the
blades on the right, with notches for 10-22ga wire. The largest notch works
well for stripping the outer jacket of small coax.

The other trick I've discovered is using the corkscrew on a Swiss Army knife
to unbraid the shield. It's pointy but has smooth sides, so it teases the
braid apart without nicking and breaking the strands.

I'm sure that a dedicated coax stripper works better, but these are
techniques born many years ago, from a small budget. :-)
