Surprisingly good for the price, but unrefined.	July 30, 2018
Reviewer: Nate B from Royal Oak, MI United States

The good:

It's incredibly adjustable, and can take a super shallow cut, with fine control over the depth, better than any other tool I've used.

The adjustment doesn't seem to drift, even without an explicit locking or friction mechanism.

It's also fairly compact, light, and cheap.

The bad:

The plastics' fit and finish is poor, sharp edges everywhere. Everything works, but it's uncomfortable to adjust because your fingers are scraping an unbroken edge. I spent a minute with a deburring tool and it's a lot more comfortable to use now.

The cutting blade isn't quite centered inside the body, and there's no edge-on view of the cable during insertion, so it's hard to place the strip precisely. Not a big deal for cat-5, but obnoxious for coax prep.

There's no graduation to record and recover depth settings. So if you want to prep several cable types, you have to eyeball it and then dial it in each time, or just have several copies of the tool.

Miller UTP & STP Data Cable Strip Tool	March 16, 2018
Reviewer: Jeffrey Gack from Springboro, PA United States

I wish I had this tool years ago.
Tool works great, works on lots of different types of cable and doesn't cut the inner insulation if adjusted properly.

Great and Consistent Cable Stripper	July 22, 2017
Reviewer: Lester Gill from Marcus Hook, PA United States

I have my hole house wired with Cat5E and or Cat 6 cable for my home network. I make all of my own cables to insure that I get the cable at the proper length. I have 5 computers including 2 laptops, 1 NUC mini computer HTPC dedicated to my movie collection, a desktop and mini desktop . I recently needed to move my HTPC, added a Roku Ultra, an Apple TV unit, an Element Ti8, and Amazon Fire TV box and a couple of Gigabit switches. I have a 12 TB NAS well. EVERY network Cable in my network was made by me. The hardest part was stripping the Cat5E and Cat6 cable. This incredible stripper made it so easy to strip the cables consistently and without internal wire damage EVERY TIME. One of the best purchases that I have ever made, and it was at a great price as well, I highly recommend this tool to anyone who makes or repairs Network cables.
