Abstract
Various embodiments disclosed herein related to a hand operated cutting tool. The hand operated cutting tool may include a first cutting member; a first handle coupled to the first cutting member; a second handle having a second cutting member; and a pivot connection pivotably coupling the first handle to the second handle. The first cutting member may include a cutting device that defines a bow-shaped cutting profile, wherein the bow-shaped cutting profile facilitates an acceleration of a cut-point position defined by an interaction of the first and second cutting members as the first and second handles move from a fully open position to a fully closed position.
