I’ve had these in my bag for a couple weeks now and I have a better opinion of these now.

7” in line stripes ICON Item # 59152
I didn’t realize when I bought these that they are NOT meant to strip wires smaller than 12 awg. I wouldn’t have bought them if I read that on the packaging.

Flush cut ICON item # 57683
I’ve used these quite a few times in the past couple weeks and so far so good.

Fast Adjust Slip Joint Pliers ICON item # 70310
I’ve only used these a few times but I can say they are great for spring style hose clamps.
