Wire strippers for smaller gauages

For DIY electronic projects. The most important thing is that they MUST strip stranded wire from 18-22 AWG WITHOUT cutting/tearing any of the strands.

I was trying to strip some 18 AWG "lamp cord" with fairly heavy insulation. I think it took me 3 or 4 attempts before I could get a full 1" of the insulation off. Trying to get 2" of bare wire was a waste of time. Luckily, I had no issue with losing 6+" off the cord.

Thanks a lot.
