KLEIN TOOLS · Fixed-notch wire strippers
Klein 1011 compact solid and stranded wire stripper and cutter
Compact fixed-notch stripper with a serrated nose

Check the fit
Choose it for the documented wire sizes and a compact grip. Klein excludes steel wire and bolt cutting, so compare a separate screw shear if that function matters.
When to choose it
The Klein 1011 pairs six standard stripping positions with a shear-style wire cutter and a serrated nose for handling wire. At just over six inches long, it is a useful comparison with longer models if the work area is small.
