Abstract
A cable-stripping tool having a body with first and second openings in an upper wall thereof, a central pin mounted in the body with an upper end thereof carrying a cutting blade and projecting through the first opening, and a hook having a concave side which faces toward the cutting blade to receive a cable to be stripped protecting through the second opening. A carrier element is supported on the central pin and axially movable relative thereto, the carrier element being provided with a latching device to which the free end of the stem portion of the hook is coupled such that the hook is axially movable with the carrier element. The latching device coacts with the stem to secure the hook to the carrier element during use of the tool and is actuatable from outside the tool without dismantling the tool such that the stem can be released from the latching device using an instrument and the hook withdrawn for replacement thereof with another hook.
