Everytime I do a remote starter install I cut myself a bunch of times.. When I tap into the wires I get a razor blade and go around the wire in two spots then down the middle like this:
What I want to know is... Is there a tool that can do this rather then cuttin my fingers all up each time?
Thanks much!

Get a pair like the ones below. Basically just use the correct gauge, cut the shielding in the two spots, then use the tip to pull the shielding away. I am sure someone will mention the kind that strips from the middle but they don't fit in have the places they need to.

I have a Paladin wire stripper similar to this one, it's self adjusting, which is handy. It can separate the insulation by pushing it apart after cutting it, without having to remove a notch section.
I've used a Klein of the type that auex showed above, and it's good for heavy gauge wires, but it is kinda clumsy under the dash in a nest of wires, because you have to make sure you place it in the right notch for it to work properly, and it has to have enough side clearance from all the other wires in the bundle.
