Wire strippers without cutting the wire first?

I've been looking round for something that fits the bill, for a tool I am convinced I saw on American Hotrod.

I'm after a wire stripper tool that strips the wire mid-way down the length of the wire, rather than off the end of it like regular wire stripper do. Meaning you could splice a second wire to the stripped wire, without cutting and resoldering it.

Or is it a case of knowing a technique using a normal tool?

 

I think it is literally a case of using the normal tool in the middle of the wire.

Something like these will work

i use a normal set of wire strippers and a stanleys knife

 

This is what we use in the RAF... Perfect for the jobs once you set them up for the cable size and insulation thickness...

 

Toyotec uses his teeth. I have seen this in operation

 

I use these, if Im in a tight spot, a lighter works great too, melty melty push it back,

or the back of a soldering iron, just watch out for the burning plastic.

 

lol perfect if you want dry joints!!!!!!

 

I bought a set of Mac strippers that can spread the insulation apart, to be honest if you use a scraper razor blade you can just do two round cuts into the wire 10mm apart and a straight cut down it and peel a section out.
