Abstract: A cable stripping tool for use with electrical cables comprising an inner core and at least one outer sheath. The cable stripper includes a body including a cable retaining portion having a rotational axis defined therethrough. The cable retaining portion is configured to receive a cable such that its longitudinal axis is coaxial with the rotational axis. The cable stripper also includes first and second cutting blades movable transversely relative to the rotational axis between a retracted position and a cutting position, the cutting blades each having a blade edge. The blade edges of the first and second blades are axially spaced from each other relative to the rotational axis and are arranged such that in the cutting position the first cutting blade is spaced a first radial distance from the rotational axis and the second blade is spaced a second radial distance from the rotational axis that is greater than the first radial distance.
