<p>In a preferred embodiment, a wire stripper (10) which includes: a generally elongate lower body member (12) having first and second ends; a generally elongate upper clamping member (40) having first and second ends and generally overlying the lower body member; an integral flexible hinge member (46) joining the lower body member and the upper clamping member intermediate the respective first and second ends, an integral biaser (50) disposed at and between the first ends, so as to bias the first ends apart by rotation of the upper clamping member around the flexible hinge member, and so as to draw the second ends toward each other, and to permit the second ends to be drawn apart by the further tensioning of the biaser by the rotation of the upper clamping member around the hinge member; and a cutting blade (30) disposed in the second end of the lower body member along the major axis of the lower body member and extending above the upper surface thereof, such that a cable inserted between the second ends when the first ends are drawn together will come into cutting engagement with the cutting blade when the second ends are subsequently drawn together, and one or more layers of the cable will be severed by the cutting blade when the wire stripper is rotated about the cable in a plane orthogonal to the axis of the cable.</p> |
