I have this tool on order (Knipex 13 72 8), but I don’t see anything that leads me to believe it can strip the outer jacket, so if you want that functionality, you will need to use a different tool. Personally, I don’t mind that, and will supplement it with a tool that can strip the outer jacket as needed. Nevertheless, from everything I have seen and read, it appears to be an excellent, forged tool with a very useful set of features. **Q: How is thread damage prevented if the screw cutters aren't threaded? Anyone have experience cutting lots of screw with it?** A: You cut the screws at an angle. This keeps this from getting burred up. **Q: Are these spring loaded?** A: Yes, the product features an internal spring. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quality combination pliers *by M***. on 25 November 2022* Out of all knipex pliers I own, these are my top favourite. ### ⭐ KNIPEX Alicate - produto caro e qualidade duvidosa *by C***. on 24 March 2026* Segunda compra (troca) e defeito persiste… pontas não se conectam quando fechado e travado… Produto caro e qualidade duvidosa ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exactly what I needed *by D***C on 26 February 2024* This tool was a great price and the quality is great.
