Fluke Networks 11231255 Multi-Level Coax Cable Stripper 2 and 3 Level for RG58/59 Coaxial Cable

Bought it to strip audio coaxial with braided shield. Took some dialing but it works fine.

It works fine, and it's pretty adjustable. Four stars because it's *miserable* to move the little blades around, there is no built-in storage for the extra blade if you switch from 3 to 2 blade strips, it's kind of a pain to adjust, and the blades are proprietary. If you need to strip RG-58 or 59, this is one of the few that will really do it. If you just need RG-6, there are lots of other options that will work just as well, if not better.

In short:I have 3 of these, one for each type of bmc crimp connector I use.As a video engineer and builder of equipment racks, I really like this product if I'm not using compression crimp connectors. Have been using this style of coax stripper for several years.IMO, the only downside to this type of design is that it takes a while to "dial in" the razor blades. This is not a defect or indicator of poor quality, it is just that re adjusting the 3 blades takes time. However once you get it right, the blades usually stay in the calibrated position.

This is what you want if you are stripping coax. Easy to adjust and works perfectly every time. I just used it today and was thinking how much time it saved me while I was working in the HOT Sun in New Mexico while I was talking on the cell phone and was able to strip and crimp my cables precisely and move on to the next job. Will buy another in the near future if this on mysteriously disappears.

Does what it is supposed to do...but I was trying to strip the various insulation and braid levels to non-standard dimensions for a sensor application and was hoping for more flexibility regarding blade spacing and cut depth. Doesn't quite fit the bill for my needs, but I'll be able to install cable TV connectors like a pro.
