Thought that cheap 2 dollar coax stripper from the supply house was junk, until it saved me on a 6 unit apartment job

Picked one up about 3 months back because my old stripper walked off a job in Tulsa. It felt like a toy in my hand and I almost tossed it in the truck box for good. Then last Friday I had 6 units to wire in one day, all RG6, and my regular tool got chewed up on some old stiff cable. Grabbed the cheap one out of spite and it cut clean on every single end, no nicked braid, no redo. Did the whole building with it and my hands weren't even sore after. Still feels flimsy but it has earned a spot in the pouch. Anyone got a stripper under 15 bucks that actually holds up past a hundred ends?
