Southwire Super BX Cable Armor Stripper

I just wired an outdoor workshop with metal-covered cable, and I did it the hard way, nibbling at the metal with diagonal pliers, then cleaning up the burrs with needlenose pliers. I have worked with old steel-covered cable before, and that's easy enough to cut with a hacksaw, then break apart. However the newer MC cable is covered with thin, soft aluminum which is difficult to cut with a hacksaw, and then it bends rather than breaks apart. The Seatek Roto-Split is absolutely wonderful! It cuts the aluminum covering of MC cable literally in seconds, without nicking the wires, or even scratching the plastic wrapper around the wires. The loose end of the metal covering then pulls right off the cable. It is very easy to use, no fumbling or tricky adjustments, and it produces a very clean and neat cut. It is just great! It is very solidly made, and should last a lifetime. Note that there are a few versions of this tool. The one I bought, which is the one I recommend, is the RS-101A. This has a very quickly and easily adjustable handle that clamps the cable prior to cutting it. Typically, you adjust it once for your cable size, then use it repeatedly without any further adjustment. There is also an RS-101, but the cable clamp is much slower to use - not recommended. The RS-101AC has a fancier cable clamp, but I personally don't think it's a necessary feature. An extra bonus is that it is entirely Made in USA by a small business whose owner stands fully behind his products - it has a lifetime warranty. And he's not even greedy - he could easily charge twice as much, and people would buy it, the tool is that useful. I'm only sorry that it took me so long to come across this tool.
