Have used it a few times. Seems to work well. Has a small circular blade you turn using the handle. After cutting an axial slot in flex conduit you can just twist the flex conduit to separate it.

A better tool cutter for BX cable. Cut through very fast with ease.

Klein tool, need I say more. Built to last and works perfectly every time.

makes cutting through BX armored wire easy, and no sharp edges to pierce wire insulation, but you will still have to use “redheads”.

Great Product

It works but took many more turns and much more pressure than I expected to cut the sheathing. Might have been because I was cutting the sheathing off wire that was already installed in a ceiling and I had limited room to work with.

Would have liked to receive an extra blade, as they use to come with them a few years ago. You guys don’t even sell extras in store

It’s a decent armored cable splitter. It’s not my go to though. I find with all the settings you have to adjust on it and how those settings become out of adjustment from normal use, this item is complicated unnecessarily. If the settings come loose, you have to take 15 minutes to reset it. I find that the Greenlee 1940 Rotosplitter or the Ideal 35-782 are better choices.

This roto splitter gets the job done. It comes with a blade even though it doesn’t look like it in the package. It also has a nice storage area for blades located in the handle.

Cutting the armored cable was quick and easy. I cleaned up someone else’s sloppy job.

My part-time electricial sub-contractor had a family crisis on a Sunday. On Monday morning, I had taken over the installation of a completely new lighting system for an exposed ceiling basement project. I have very limited experience with BX, an the few times I messed with BX I used the bend and cut method, which is slow and ugly. I knew there had to be a better way, so I did a bit of research. On my trip to Home Depot, I picked up this new Klien BX cable cutter as I picked up materials for the job. Soon, I discovered that this thing is fantastic! I went from a 5 minutes to bend, cut, and dress the BX wire to less than 30 seconds for the process. I had 24 can lights, and probably 50 connections that would require the cut and strip process. I figure this Klien tool has tool saved me 200 – minutes of labor, which is over 3 hrs. Even at 2 hours of time saved, this tool more than paid for itself. Thus, this is a must have tool for BX wire work.
