Abstract
A crimping and cutting tool useable for cutting wire and connection of a ferrule tip type electrical connector to an electrically conductive wire. The tool includes first and second lever members pivotally connected with a pivot pin. Each lever member has a head with a cutting jaw and a crimping jaw and a handle. The crimping jaws have alternative teeth and recesses in opposition to one another. The crimping jaws are movable toward one another to crimping position by applying hand force on the levers wherein each of the teeth of one of the crimping jaws fills a recess of the opposite jaw. The recesses have differing sizes such that differing sizes of electrical connectors or ferrules can be accommodated in the recesses and crimped therein. Wire cutting jaws have convex curved cutting edges located above the pivot pin.
