The KNIPEX Forged Wire Strippers, Nos. 13 71 8 and 13 72 8, are designed for stripping and cutting both solid and stranded wire between 10 and 20 AWG. They have several patent-pending features, including shear cutting blades for 25 percent easier cutting, wide gripping jaws for twisting wires, and locating ridges for easily finding stripping holes. In addition, they feature screw cutting holes for 6-32 and 8-32 screws. There's no threading required, so screw cutting is easy and fast. The wire strippers include a lock that can be used either right- or left-handed.
