## Description

Neilsen CT5683 - VDE Insulated Cable Knife with Hook: Safe Cable Cutting Tool

Review: good - Quality product works very well good
Review: Blunt blades and totally unfit for purpose - Bought this hoping it would make the job of stripping the jackets off cables easier, but found it to be utterly useless. The blade edges are so blunt they couldn't cut butter! Tring to use the jacket stripping function just made the knife hang up on the end of the jacket without making so much as a scratch on it. I'll be returning this knife and seeing if Knipex or CK do one!
