Can we talk about wire stripping mistakes we all made early on?

I spent about 3 years stripping alarm cables with a dull pocket knife from my dad's toolbox. One day a senior installer from ADT came by our job site in Austin and watched me hack away at a 22/4 for 5 minutes before he pulled out a Klein Katapult and finished it in 2 seconds. That $20 tool saved me hours and messed up wire ends ever since. Did anyone else have a moment where a simple tool swap changed how you work?

Stuck with the Katapult @fiona502, because apparently I can't be trusted with sharp objects.

That Klein Katapult is a game changer - did you ever go back and try other wire strippers after that or just stick with it?
