Wow, what an ingenious little tool - definitely fits your bill of making electricians lives easier, and on my list of things to buy. 👍☺️ The amazon link you've provided call it a cable 'stipping' knife - tee-hee🙃
After winning the all those tools you kindly sent me and one of them was the knifed ergo striper I do like the it and the one in this video 👍just a shame about the price , expensive tool that you can easily loose , but I have to agree It is a fantastic tool. 👍👍👍❤️⚡️as always guy’s
Great stuff lads, very well presented all your videos in the cave. Not anything in particular to say, just a comment and a thumbs up to support the YT algorithms. Loving the promotion of why Tuff Sheath is the best bet for the future over a NYY cable.
Nice video, the Kabifix cable stripper in my view would be difficult to surpass in this field and is definitely worth a review to bring to the attention of sparks out there. A great labour saver and it should go without saying these tools if not used correctly can ruin a cable so a test should be carried out on a scrap section first to establish the correct blade depth.
How about a video on your favourite cable stripping methods and tools. I'm not an electrician (just an interested DIYer!) and occasionally need to put a plug on a wire, or replace the cable for a lighting pendant.
Weicon also do an S4-28 stripper that can strip the inners as well, which one is better? (WEICON S4-28 Multi-Cable Knife, Blue/Red, one Size, 50057328)
Great demonstration grary/Gordon. Nice tool but I think you will stick with the croppers and side cutters. Fantastic video as always just had a look on "" "" if it was half the price I might be tempted.
I got mine from E bay for 16 quid including postage which I though was cheap compared to my Jokari flat stripper which was £65 ( but it does do the job really well
Got Jokari, Cimco (which is Jokari) got Weicon. And Weicon is better. Doesn't tend to spiral around the cable due to the different and smarter shape of the plastic in contact with cable and the slightly more wider knife actually cuts rubber isolations better and overall cutting action feels smoother and faster. Only downside it doesn't come with an extra blade like Jokari(and Cimco) and the plastic housing is slightly less tactile friendly (which isn't a real factor at all.. just an observation)
I was using a cable stripper issued by a company that I contracted to and then worked directly for in the late 70's. It was a USA company and the tool was blue, I suspect it was manufacured by Ideal. For sure that tool concept is not that new if I was using one that worked in axactly the same fashion, the centre blade is cranked and loosely rotates and follows the direction you pull the tool. I was supplied to strip a cable specific to the company, tough outer sheath and four insulated inner cores, two of one diamete and two of another diameter and a sod to strip without the correct tool. Cable was known as 'Trunk' cable and was for a multiplexed alarm system, first I ever saw, two cores for power and tw for data, the cable powered remote devices called 'pids' and form those were powered the devices such as pir's, contacts etc. I suspect the cable was manufactured by Belden as the device cable was. Why do Weicon tools always seem to mirror Knipex, Ideal, Klauke and others ? is there a connection ? Mind you, the Quickwire (Berkshire) flat cable stripper looks identical in every way to the Knipex KPX1264180 reviewed recently, price difference .....around £15 to £24 depending on where you buy the Knipex tool, less if you buy the Jokari version that looks identical, granted the panel covering the hinges have different coloured/ brand logos. I used to be a tool snob, for sure but now, if I see a tool that is the same for a third of the price of the Giants, example above, I will but it. Of course, I still but my favoured brands such as Knipex, Bahco, Wera, Wiha ,some CK, and lately, some NWS and Felo, some I hear are part of thge same group. As an apprentice..it was Elliot Lucas for pliers, 'snips',Footprints and King Dick for spanners...days long gone.
A reasonably priced stripper you say? Stop making it all sound so new and fascinating. I've owned one for over 35 years and they were known as "Jokari knives" (Jokari being the manufacturer).
Even better, it’s £12. And has a built in knife with a hooked end. I have this exact one and it’s perfect. Replaceable blades and it’s got a flat edge where the blade is, so it’s easier to keep the cable level whilst setting the blade height. :) Jokari T10280-JOKARI Secura Cable Knife No.28H (8-28mm) www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B001MS6080/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_fabc_6GX9MN6VRRFEVACTZX9Q
Bought the Jokari version years ago. Never use it. Can cut the inner cores if you set the blade too deep and doesn't remove the sheath if set too shallow. Less to think about manually adjusting the depth of a stanley knife. Bought the armour slice too and never use it. Still use a junior hacksaw. Maybe I'm mugging myself
I bought one from Amazon based on this video... wish I noticed the paid promotion bit beforehand cos its garbage. Cheap plastic, far too high spring tension, blade adjustment is imprecise at best. When you spin around the cable it's difficult to ensure its perfectly perpendicular hence it often cuts a spiral rather than one circular cut. Worth less than £5 in terms of quality. There must be better solutions than this. Amazon will be getting this one back. Don't buy!
This type of cable knifes is around here for decades, originally invented by Jokari. They also have exchangable brackets, for different sizes of cables. My favourite is this one: th-cam.com/video/hgfNKzcQBaE/w-d-xo.html Got two stripping blades, one should also be usable for flat cables. The difference between NYY and Tuf Sheath is, NYY is a normalised cable type. No matter which company manufactures it, it should always be the same thing and meet the requirements of this normalised cable type. Tuf Sheath is a product of one single manufacturer, and only available from them. The name is pronounced "Whycon" 😉
Apologies about the sound at the start - sounds like we shot this in a cave.
How is cost for this cable stripper

Thanks 🙏
dad got me this for xmas, ily dad! also thanks for showing how to use it :)
Damn, with all these very useful tools I'm already struggling to carry my tool tote... HAHA
It is similar to old British Telecom wire strippers, I've got yellow one with the BT logo on it, at least 20 years old.

Bloody channel, just started watching few days now and van is filling up with new exotic stuff. Now this is now been ordered haha
More exotic stuff coming soon 😀😀😀
@@efixx great channel guys, also good showing my old man all the new products out there making our life as sparks that much easier
Very similar to the jokari tool excellent for armoureds with tough plastic

Would this work for stripping the inner sheath of SWA. I do a lot of SWA ranging from 2.5mm 3core to 25mm 2/3 core.
Weicon also do an S4-28 stripper that can strip the inners as well, which one is better? (WEICON S4-28 Multi-Cable Knife, Blue/Red, one Size, 50057328)
Great product with a competitive price, thanks guys. It's surprising the width of range Weicon do.
when I started my apprenticeship in 1988 they were called jokari knifes lol
This video is not what I expected from the title. I'm not disappointed, it just wasn't what I expected.
Great demonstration grary/Gordon.

Cable stripper tools so important to big cable and small cable I have one with my tolls always I use it but different this one not plastic iron one
Got Jokari, Cimco (which is Jokari) got Weicon. And Weicon is better.

great feedback
will this strip FP200?
Great video guys, how about spare blades?
Are they easy to get hold of?
How much are they?
Are they easy to change?
🤷♂️👍
about £2.49 - easy to change just pull the screw adjuster out of the base.
@@efixx I was just about to buy one on Amazon but it’s saying the delivery is 1 to 2 months😕
Nice video chaps, as always!
Audio a little different in this 😬
Sounds like we entered a cave
Nice video
Are they ....good ??
Anyone got one ....
Is it still . Working or broke 🤔

Is there such a thing as an Electrician that doesn`t sweat, because of all the tips from efixx for making life easier?
Thinking this is a good investment. Trouble is changing from old techniques such as using my utility knife.
So, they advertise this as being for 4 - 16mm cable but it's perfectly capable of stripping 25mm tails?
Diameter not cross sectional area
@@efixx Thanks a lot. Just ordered one.
I want one where can I get one from ?
Direct from Weicon or well known online retailer - link in description.

It’s a cheap copy of a Jokari. They’re good, and they’re on Amazon for about £15.
