ABSTRACT:
A wire stripper formed of an elongated housing having a notched section which divides the housing into a forward head portion and a rearward body portion. A fixed blade is securely retained in the head portion and extends into the notched section. A hollow chamber formed in the body portion includes a leaf spring having a movable blade supported at its forward end and also extending into the notched section in opposition to the fixed blade. Together, the blades cooperatively define a wire receiving and stripping throat. An actuating lever extends through an elongated opening in the housing and into engagement with the leaf spring to move the leaf spring between a forward and rearward position whereby the movable blade can be spaced from the fixed blade to thereby receive the wire and can then be forwardly biased against the fixed blade to thereby cut and strip the wire.
