A tool for stripping center conductors of subminiature coaxial ribbon cable and preparing it for connection to connectors or other components comprises a base, a holding fixture movably mounted on the base, and a vertical assembly mounted over the holding fixture. The vertical assembly contains holding, conductor cutting, forming and insulation cutting blades. In operation, the holding blade is lowered to hold a portion of the cable's insulation. The cutting blade cuts any extra length of conductors. The forming blade forms the drains so that they extend perpendicularly from the rest of the ribbon cable. The insulation cutting blade cuts insulation from the center conductor.
