Review: Worth the price - The cutters on these cut like a dream. They are comfortable in the hand. They are super durable made with high quality material. They strip wires really well and the nose of the strippers helps take apart wire or just used as pliers. They are really lightweight and they aren't too big which is nice for measuring wire out of a box because it leaves me more than enough to work with. The design of the comfort grip is appealing compared to the standard grip or even other strippers. Cutting screws of any sort is effortless, my only issue is that they don't cut the screws short enough. Other then that I love these strippers
Review: without exaggeration, the finest tool of its kind - The KNIPEX 13 72 8 Forged Wire Stripper is, without exaggeration, the finest tool of its kind I have ever used. It perfectly blends the brute strength of a craftsman's plier with the delicate precision of a surgeon's scalpel. The forged construction provides a sense of indestructible quality, yet the compound leverage mechanism makes stripping even tough wires feel incredibly smooth and effortless. The precision-ground stripping holes are impeccably sized and cleanly cut through insulation without a single nick to the copper conductor. The integrated cutters are razor-sharp, and the ability to crimp terminals adds to its remarkable versatility. This single 8-inch tool has effectively replaced two or three others in my bag. For any electrician, technician, or serious DIYer, this is not just an expense; it's a long-term investment in flawless performance. The ergonomics, balance, and sheer quality justify its price many times over. Once you use it, every other wire stripper feels inadequate. An absolute five-star masterpiece.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best wire strippers I’ve used on the job
*by G***N on January 15, 2026*

These are easily the best hand tool I’ve owned. While other brands make similar tools, once you use these it’s very hard to go back. The design is incredibly efficient and clearly built for professional use. They’re especially well-suited for someone with field experience (roughly 2+ years) who understands proper safety practices. I would never cut anything I wasn’t certain was de-energized, but for approved applications these cut MC cleanly and effortlessly. They’re excellent for splicing and often eliminate the need to carry lineman’s pliers for many tasks. The build quality is top-tier, and they’ve held up extremely well to regular jobsite use. Durable, precise, and absolutely worth the investment.
