Doesn't exist that I know of...Besides if it's adjustable for all sizes 
it's likely to be out of adjustment for the one you want.
I used to old, "Box Cutter" method for years along with solder 
connectors.  Then I tried a number of strippers.   I now use all crimp 
connectors. For strippers I use a two step Tessco ST-600EZ for LMR-600 
(bit pricey), a three blade and two blade  (don't remember the make or 
model numbers) for N and UHF connectors on RG8/LMR-400 sizes, and a 
third for RG6/RG8X & RG58.  They are pretty much "grab and use".   I 
purchased mine from Davis RF and no, I have no connection with the 
company.  Oh! I also have to crimping tools, one for the LMR-600 and one 
for the "other stuff" with two sets of dies.

73 and good luck,
