Klein Tools K12035 Klein-Kurve Wire Cutters, Made in USA, Heavy Duty Wire Stripping Tool

I’ve heard varying opinions on this product but finally decided to buy it. This has been without a doubt the best quality purchase I’ve made as an electrician in the past year. It’s comfortable in the hand, able to strip insulation easily and cleanly, and the thick “lineman side” of the pliers has a great grip. It’s not much larger than normal strippers either.Before I’d use strippers and lineman’s pliers for each make up and this slowed me down drastically. Now, I just use this to strip and twist my wires for a faster box makeup.My only critique was there was no lock available to keep the pliers closed in my pouch but I cut the spring out and it works like a charm.

This is a very nice, well made “do it all” tool. I’m not an electrician, I’m a small engine mechanic and this will be a back pocket, everyday carry for me. Very useful. Very well made.

Wonderful pliers/stripping tool, good cutting ability and easily strips wires.

I've been buying these cutters for a long time and it's the perfect hand tool for almost all of my electrical jobs. I bought this model because it still has the lock on the handle to keep the jaws closed so it fits easier in my tool pouch. I also like the tip of the jaws because it lets me grip the wires and twist them together before I put the wire nut on the wires. I would purchase again when this pair wears out.

I would give 5 stars but I wish they locked shut for storage. other wise they are pretty nice. also would be nice for the gauge indications on both sides for right or left handed use.

Great item well worth it

Klein tools, not much more to say. Cuts and stops wire very fast. Combination bender eyes and you’re through with tasks quickly and don’t have to get up and down a ladder multiple times.

Love this guy for making elecical joints
