ABSTRACT:
A tool and method for using the tool to strip a sheath from an end of the cable wherein the tool includes a tube; a cylindrical plunger slideably positioned in the tube; a yoke having a U shape. The yoke is attached to and spaced from one end of the tube and is aligned with the tube to permit that one end of the plunger, sliding toward the yoke, passes between legs of the yoke. A spring biases the plunger toward the yoke. A knife; clipped to the yoke, is arranged to cut a longitudinal cut in an end section of the sheath, positioned between the legs of the yoke and forced by the plunger against the knife. A handle having one end secured to the plunger, is accessible for withdrawing the plunger from the yoke to permit positioning the cable in the yoke.
