A cable stripping tool for electrical cables

A cable stripping tool for use with electrical cables comprising an inner core and at least one outer sheath, the cable stripper comprising: a body including a cable retaining portion having a rotational axis defined therethrough, the cable retaining portion being configured to receive a cable such that its longitudinal axis is coaxial with the rotational axis; and first and second cutting bladesmovable transversely relative to the rotational axis between a retracted position and a cutting position, the cutting blades each having a blade edge; wherein the blade edges of the first and second blades are axially spaced from each other relative to the rotational axis and are arranged such that in the cutting position the first cutting blade is spaced a first radial distance from the rotational axis and the second blade is spaced a second radial distance from the rotational axis that is greater than the first radial distance, the cable stripping tool being rotatable about the rotational axis when the cutting blade
