ARES 21002-9-inch Wire Stripper, Crimper, and Cutter Electrical Multi-Tool - Crimp Insulated, Non-Insulated and Ignition Terminals - Strip and Cut 8-22 AWG Stranded and 10-24 AWG Solid Wire

Perfect for trimming small screws to length

My old wire stripper, which I have is about 28 years old. After having some issues with crimping, it was time for some new blood next to my old ones. Great tool and kind of reminds me of my old stripper. Well built stripper and performers like the old ones. I do recommend this stripper and really a nice tool to own.

Like the old fashioned crimper/strippers I've used for decades, but with a tweaked design. In particular, the crimper for non-insulated electric terminals have great leverage and easier access than some other designs.The screw holding it together occasionally comes loose--other designs I've seen use a rivet instead. The tradeoff is that with s screw you can adjust the tension (you want some tension when you're spinning the tool around a wire while stripping it)--but it also can get loose. My riveted tools work fine, while this one needs a screwdriver tightening every few minutes. If you were using this tool 9-5 that might become tedious. But I love the crimper :)

This was a replacement for the ARES 13000 ratcheting crimper that I purchased a week earlier, but failed to perform, and I returned. This tool (ARES 21002-9-inch Wire Stripper, Crimper, and Cutter Electrical Multi-Tool) performed flawlessly. Cutting 10 AWG wire was a breeze, and crimping heat-shrink waterproof produced connections that were strong and couldn't be pulled off. 14,16, and 18 AWG crimps performed similarly. Well done!

I have strippers, cutter and crimpers, and for the life of me, nobody makes a specific use screw shear or cutter. I'm a Knipex fan, but even they don't make one (or their metric). Typical stamped design as all others, but what caught my eye is they're forged. Cuts well and the grip is more comfortable than most.

Does what it's supposed to. Handle is well cushioned.

This was an excellent purchase. The tool is well made , robust and should last for years.

Very good tool have used it for electrical connectors on my motorcycle
