I'm trying to find some large gauge cable cutters that have return spring, or tension spring.

I have looked all over the internet, and I can only find cutters without a spring.

Does anyone know where I might find a tool like this?

Thanks

I'll take you at your word that you want cable CUTTERS and not strippers.

How large guage are you referring to?

I know just enough to be dangerous. VERY dangerous.

I dont think that the high leverage cutters come spring loaded. Its usually the lighter telco electronic style or stripping tools.

Yes, I want cutters. I'm trying to cut up to 2 gauge power cable. I already have a large gauge cable cutter that can do the job, but it would be much easier and much faster if they had a spring attached.

Obviously, it isn't a big deal, I was just curious to see if anybody knew if they existed.
