a half decent stanley knife with a sharpe blade been using mine for years, works fine for me, and is cheaper than any fancy tool. Bet its quicker too and it deals with all sizes and i dont need an instruction manual either

No way is that quicker than a Jokari, but each to his own thing I suppose.

i agree the jokari is good tool, i have one but this machine is heavy duty for large tails and scrap ,

It's not perfect, of course, but then, what is? I find that if you cock it up, the Jokari makes a mess of removing the outer sheath, but if you work confidently it does a quick job. It's about knack. I'd never go back to using a Stanley knife.
