Built by Chad Weatherford in South Carolina, USA, the Weatherford Wire Stripper is a compact fixed blade designed for precision utility work and dependable everyday performance. With its purpose-driven design, lightweight construction, and durable materials, this specialized knife delivers the control and convenience you want from a tool that's meant to work, not take up space.
The 1.75-inch AEB-L stainless steel blade provides a compact cutting edge that's ideal for controlled, detailed tasks. AEB-L is a proven stainless steel known for taking an exceptionally sharp edge while offering excellent toughness and corrosion resistance. That makes it a practical choice for a working knife that may encounter moisture, dirt, and the everyday wear that comes with hands-on jobs. The short blade gives you excellent control, making it easier to perform precise cuts without the bulk of a larger fixed blade.
Green G-10 handles provide a durable and secure grip while giving the knife a distinctive outdoor-ready appearance. G-10 is lightweight, tough, and resistant to moisture, making it an excellent handle material for a compact utility knife. The green scales complement the included green Kydex sheath, creating a cohesive look while maintaining the practical performance you'd expect from a Weatherford design.
Measuring 6 inches overall, the Wire Stripper maintains a compact footprint that's easy to carry and easy to maneuver. At just 2.3 ounces without the sheath, it's light enough to disappear into your everyday gear until you need it. With the sheath, the total carry weight is only 3.7 ounces, so you won't have to sacrifice portability for the convenience of a fixed blade.
The Kydex sheath provides a lightweight, durable way to protect and carry the knife. Its black lanyard-cord attachment adds a practical carry point, giving you another option for securing the knife to your gear or keeping it readily accessible. Kydex is well suited for working environments where durability, moisture resistance, and easy maintenance matter.
Made in South Carolina, USA, the Weatherford Wire Stripper reflects Chad Weatherford's focus on compact, functional designs built for real-world use. Whether you're handling wire-related tasks, working around the shop, or simply want a lightweight fixed blade for your gear, this Weatherford delivers useful cutting performance in a remarkably compact package.
