We have a few of them for Systimax cat5e and cat 6 , they work great but seems like they need to improve on the squeeze handle gimmick. My hands don't work like they used to anymore.

Originally posted by jeffmoss26: So I went back to HD today...bought the JackRapid...so far so good! Cool that your HD still has them: ours quit stocking them a while ago. I finally lubed mined last week per the linked thread above. Works better than new (after I put the four screws in the bottom back in their proper places, lol). Jeff, you'll love yours. The only problem I've had with mine, other than the action becoming stiff and notchy, is that once in a while I'll get a keystone that seems a bit bowed/splayed on the end (blue pair) and the cutter head will bite into the plastic post(s) instead of cutting off the excess wire. The plastic tips outboard of the cutters will probably break if you do this a few times, but mine still works anyway.
The question is more important than the answer.

I saw these at HD on clearance a couple months ago and should have picked up one. I was at HD yesterday and didn't see any. In fact this particular HD seemed to be getting out of selling testsets and other telco tools, focusing on just keystones, faceplaces, RJ connectors, etc.

That's certainly good news! Hopefully all will follow suit.
