CK wire strippers... are they worth it?

[DPG]

100% agree but bloody expensive ! I Have the red CK strippers and they do just about all my work. I dont lose any sleep about the small % that i flaff about with etc. I want to buy the new type when i can locate them cheap !

Flaff - great word. It's not a euphemism is it?

You're probably thinking 'fluff' as in 'fluffers' - ladies on pornsets designated to get (and in some cases keep) the males 'ready to perform'.

So Wikipedia tells me... .

Could be an alternative name for that yes!

Would like to find a reliable and simple way to strip H07RN-F as still using Stanley knife for sheath but requires quite a bit of care to avoid nicking the primary insulation.

I know it's 6 months since but that really does have the sound of 'an apprentice at work' about it.?

I have one of the CK strippers and its great for T&E. Sort of works for some round cables as well.

I have been using the Knipex ergostrip for H07RN-F seems great so far for up to 1.5 3core it will ring it and there is a small enclosed blade on the side that will strip it length ways. Quite a handy tool actually, I was surprised how versatile it is and have used it for all sorts, even works well on the inner sheath of SWA up to about 2.5 3core.

The word is actually "Faff"

faff
We should stop faffing around and get on with it.

They then faffed around for some 18 months and failed to request a delay in implementing the directive.

I responded with a wee bit of politicians' faff—a bit of flannel.

I would like to conclude by saying to all those who are likely to be the important players in the end game: do not faff about.
