Review: Love this tool BUT - I really love this tool, HOWEVER, I did not get even 100 uses, maybe not even 50 uses when the blade broke off one side of the slitting side and rendered the tool useless for me. It struggles so bad to fit CommScope 48ct that I continue to enter the old fashioned way, although it works great on corning fast access even makes the fast access a little faster. But having a blade break out in mid-slit when I haven't even hit 10% of lifetime usage has me rethinking my over priced donation to Jonard.
