A VDE insulated cable knife made for stripping and cutting cable insulation where electrical safety matters. Tested to IEC 60900, it is intended for electrical work on live conductors up to 1kV AC and 1.5kV DC, giving buyers a properly rated option instead of relying on a standard knife.

Used by electricians, maintenance engineers and installers, this type of knife suits wiring work, electrical repairs, site jobs and general maintenance where cable insulation needs to be opened cleanly. It is useful for keeping in an electrical tool kit for regular servicing and installation work, whether on-site, in a workshop or during routine repair jobs around control panels, wiring runs and cabling.

The insulated build is there for the job it is meant to do, while the 2-component injection handle helps with grip and control during repeated use. A protective cap is included, which makes the knife safer to store in a toolbox or tool bag and keeps the blade covered between tasks. For anyone carrying out regular electrical work, having a dedicated rated cable knife close to hand helps avoid using the wrong tool when working around energised circuits.
