Default wire strippers

Anybody remember that cold head soldering iron advertised on tv
a while back? It was supposed to come with a pair of these
neat looking wire strippers. Well today at the Miami hamfest
someone was selling just the wire strippers. I got two of the
smaller ones good for .2-3mm wire (what's that in AWG?) and
one of the larger ones good for .2-6mm wire for $20.
These really are cool wire strippers, they quickly strip
any guage wire (in the supported range) without nicking the
wire. They even appear to work on some wire wrap wire that
is usually impossible to strip except with hard to find
'no-nick' brand cutters. (though you have to be carefull to
put the wire in the right hand side of the cutters where
the opening is a bit wider.
