ABSTRACT:
A hand tool for slitting the sheath on flat, two to four conductor, plastic clad cables wherein one or more pointed knives project from the end of a handle into a chamber bounded, opposite the knife blades, by a sloping wall, one end of which defines an opening only slightly larger than the cable to be cut while the other end of the wall defines one end of an elongated opening throughout which the cable can be moved to assume a range of angles relative to the knives. A cable to be cut may be introduced into the chamber at an angle such that its surface does not touch the knives, and the tool can then be moved to an angle such that the knife points are driven into the cable and the sheath is cut, to facilitate separation and stripping of the conductors.
