Ideal 35-9340 Skinning Knife 7 1/2 in
The Ideal 35-9340 is a cable slitting knife built for electricians and technicians who prepare wire and cable. Its steel blade measures 7 1/2 inches overall and includes a V-notch that rests on the conductor for controlled slitting. The handle uses double-insulated Santoprene shaped for ergonomic grip and the tool meets ASTM F1505-01, DIN, EN, IEC 60900, OSHA and VDE standards. A tether-ready point and belt pouch are included.
Suited for wire preparation tasks
This knife suits professionals who need a dedicated slitting tool with a V-notch profile and a tether point for working at height. It is not intended for users who require a fully insulated blade rated for live-line contact, nor for those needing a general-purpose utility knife without the specialised cable geometry. Buyers who want a tool certified for direct high-voltage exposure should look at voltage-rated insulated knives instead.
1000 V voltage rating
The single specification that decides fit is the 1000 V rating combined with the VDE, IEC 60900 and ASTM F1505-01 certifications. This rating covers the double-insulated handle and overall construction for protection against accidental contact, but the blade itself is not insulated. Confirm that your safety procedures accept a conductive blade with an insulated handle before selecting this model.
