Tools and Hardware Reviews of Klein 11055 Klein-Kurve Wire Stripper/Cutter, Blue
Customer Review: Great wire strippers, get a pair!
Summary: 5 Stars
As others have indicated, these Klein wire strippers are -the- strippers to have. I've used a few others before, but they don't compare with these at all. Klein makes some great tools and there's a reason they're so popular among tradesmen. This product is a shinning example of what makes Klein so great -they're well designed, functional and effective. You can strip wires like nobody's business with these things, they're razor sharp and very nice to hold in your hand. I love the curved handle and the comfortable grips, makes it much easier to use.
Get yourself a pair of these if you're in the market for a wire stripper, you'll be glad you did. Definitely worth every penny.
Customer Review: good tool for a while
Summary: 2 Stars
I got a good tool from klein and my only complaint is that the cutter does not work as well as it should. It will cut wire with insulation still on it but it won't cut bare stranded wire (16awg) very well without jamming between the blades sometimes.
UPDATE 23 Dec - I got this tool to rewire a 1985 porsche targa. It has barely made it. I finished the car yesterday and I think this tool is finished too. Besides the problems mentioned in my initial review it is now very difficult to strip wires with this thing, maybe its dull now, who knows who cares. I am surprised because Klein makes good stuff. Maybe I got a dud but I won't buy another klein to find out.
Customer Review: What is life without Klein-Kurve Strippers
Summary: 5 Stars
As a professional Union Electrician wire strippers are part of my daily use tools. Klein is my preferred brand... Although, I use other brands. I go through several pairs of strippers a year. I wear them out, abuse, and misuse them. If I could only have 1 pair of strippers in my tool kit it would be these. They are comfortable and and easy to use. Other straight handle strippers tire my hands after repeated use. I use these all day in commercial and industrial applications without hand strain. If you are weekender or professional I recommend these strippers. You will not be disappointed.Customer Review: Top quality tool.
Summary: 5 Stars
There's really not much to say about this tool that you can't get from the description. I have owned other wire strippers in the past and I can say that I am glad that I spent the extra money on the Klein. This is a quality tool. It has a spring on the handle for ease of use. There's no wiggle in the joint, and it's very precise. It's comfortable to hold and has a simple locking mechanism to prevent damage when it's in your toolbox.
I would definitely recommend this tool. My dad, a lifetime contractor, recommended it to me and I am not recommending it to you.
Customer Review: The best I've found
Summary: 5 Stars
Klein makes the best tools for electrical work. These strip well, cut well, are far better made than any others I've used or seen, and comfortable in the hand. There's no "wobble" at the hinge joint and they're made out of high quality tool steel that holds an edge. I'll gladly pay a few more dollars for a made-in-the-USA tool and these will probably outlast 2 or 3 of the Chinese version. Note: Klein makes a few versions for different wire gauge ranges.
