Handheld Cutting Tool
(57) Abstract
Presented embodiments of the handheld cutting tool are capable of cutting in one of two ways: with the cutting edge of the blade only so as to minimize damage to objects not intended to be cut or, alternately, with the point of the blade as with more typical knives. The tool is comprised predominantly of a handle body, a blade holder and a rotational control assembly for allowing the blade holder to rotate. The blade holder holds either a replaceable isosceles trapezoid utility blade or replaceable single edge razor blade and has, in some embodiments, a portion that isolates parts of the blade from objects not intended to be cut. The rotational control assembly enables the blade holder to rotate between retracted and a plurality of extended positions thus permitting the blade holder to deploy the blade at various angles to facilitate proper cutting of materials.
