There's 3 other models in the LC CST series...,
By CDB (Martinez, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Paladin 1257 LC CST 2-Level Coax Stripper, RG59/RG6/RG6-Quad (Tools & Home Improvement)
Per Paladins' website, the 1257 is clearly a 2-level 1/4" x 1/4" stripper, preset for RG-6. I assume they're just using a common body for the 4 models in this Econo line, hence the *missing* 3rd blade. If you want a 3-level stripper for RG-6, look elsewhere.
In testing this on a scrap of Chinese-made Radio Shack RG6, the blade depth settings were precisely on target. No nicking at all of the center conductor or the shielding. Since I'm forced to also have to deal with legacy RG59 junk, I'll have to buy a second one and adjust it for the '59. I don't want to have to waste time going back and forth on the settings. Minus 1 star for crappy instructions. They say to rotate the tool "clockwise" when in fact it's *counterclockwise. Also not shown is the location of the included adjustment hex key: (bottom of the squeeze handle).

3 blade sets, only 2 blades,
This review is from: Paladin 1257 LC CST 2-Level Coax Stripper, RG59/RG6/RG6-Quad (Tools & Home Improvement)
Several places on the internet show this tool as being able to make 3 level strips (for BNC) and it can. However the package only includes 2 blades, and replacement blades are either not available, or hard to find. If you want to use it for 3 level strips then you may need to purchase (2) of these so you can take a blade from the second. I am very dissapointed that the device has 3 blade level height adjustments but only 2 blades.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Paladin 1257 LC CST 2-Level Coax Stripper, RG59/RG6/RG6-Quad (Tools & Home Improvement)
This item works very well for stripping RG-6 wire. It has two pre-set blades at 1/4" x 1/4". It is not configured for RG-59 or for 3 level stripping.
I should note that I am not using this tool professionally. I have used it to make about a dozen wires around my house. There may be more appropriate tools for professional use, but for average homeowner use these are perfect.
