Gardner BenderGS-355 Electrical Wire Stripper Tool, Comfort Grip, Solid & Stranded Wire, 20-10 AWG, Hand Tool, 6¼ in.

Best wire strippers I’ve owned. I bought one from Depot or Lowe’s years ago, now they no longer carry them in our local stores. I run a crew of professional repair techs, and these are the best ones out there. Just ordered 3 more.

I bought 3 different brands and these were the best. One brand was not worth buying, the other was good but not as comfortable to use. The Gardner Bender GS-360 will be my go to stripper. Feels comfortable and precise.

The strippers are mediocre at best. If half stars were an option this would have gotten a half lower. Not worth the 10 and change for purchase and 5 for shipping. I have an inexpensive Chinese brand I picked up some time back that I am keeping at school for the time and wanted to purchase another stripper to keep at the house. I was specifically looking for something with the range of 30 AWG to 16 AWG. There are only about three options that I could find and this was one of them. I have no experience with the company but I probably should have tried the Platinum Tools 15005C in hindsight. Anyway I'll just talk a little about the positives and negatives.Positives: The spring return works rather well and isn't too stiff. Any of the areas that would come in contact with my hands are smoth and finished. No protruding seams. The markings on the steel are clear and easily readable.Negatives: The cutting part of the strippers isn't flush and there is a little tension and click when using them. Like scissors with a nick in them. There was a lot of play in the two halves held by the hex nut. If it were tighter though the above mentioned would be overly noticeable. The cutter doesn't cut very well. It could be due to the above problem as well. The 30 AWG doesn't strip as well as my inexpensive Chinese brand strippers but the 16, 18 and 22 AWG that I have used work fine enough. It's hard to see in the picture but there is not lock. They are always open.Side note, above I mentioned that I gave it three stars, but after writing this short review and pondering on it, I switched to two stars. I am very frustrated with these strippers. I'd advise against them.

Received product advertised containing a locking device. Received Wire Stripper and NO locking device. Nobody watching what they send.

I wish I knew it will not strip 10 ga braided wire, only solid, I probably would have got a different one. It looks like good enough quality though.

A friend of mine had these and I liked them so much I had to get my own. They are nice and sharp with rubber grips, small and durable. I would recommend these to any electronics tech.

Better than expected

The best feature on these are the fact that they are locking, I had a pair that weren't locking and they were a pain when I used a canvas bag.

A good quality wire stripper for smaller sized wires. Makes stripping wire very easy.

Compared to the ones at my local hardware store, this one is far the most cost effective wire stripper. Wider AWG range, easy to use and cheaper. Try to find one like this at your local hardware store.

Nice and compact. Hinge needed some breaking in but that's pretty normal

Came in and had to return them as they wouldn't close as the metal was catching. Didn't seem much better than any other cheap wire cutters either.

Great strippers. Use them daily.
