" A pocket knife and side cutters are not the correct fiber optic strippers for removing the jacket,
buffer or buffer tube during fiber cable installation.  I once saw a gent with a razor blade trying
to remove a cable jacket one time.  I wonder where he got his training?"
Doctor Fibre
Grey Buffer Tube Splitter (For Fiber Tubes and Small O.D. Distribution Fiber)     
These Buffer Tube Strippers made by IDEAL with adjustable blades can be set for any depth to help assure
nick-free jacket entry from simplex fiber to specifications on a variety of fiber optic cable up to 1/8 inch
diameter. Loose tube fiber demands a precision tool capable of cutting different buffer tube diameters without
nicking the enclosed fiber. Take the spare blades off and keep one on the unit. Store them where you can find
them later - like in a plastic soap dish along with your Strain Relief repair tools - a razor blade and super glue.  
Jacket Stripper   

Cut and strip jackets from simplex fiber cables. The dual "V" notch in this fiber optic cable stripper
blade allows the quick removal of jacket material. Additional features include plier nose, cushion
grip and spring release making this a COOL TOOL indeed.

Bi-Directional Splitter w/Rotatable Blade
"This thing is way too cool for the
non-fiber guys.  But this jacket slitter
works great on both copper and
fiber cable.  Actually it probably
works better on fiber cable."
