Abstract
The cutting tool has a circular blade having a center hole and a plurality of pivot holes spaced apart on a common radius with a handle fixed to the center hole and one of said pivot holes. A pivot shaft extends between spaced side plates and the blade is mounted on said pivot shaft. Each side plate has a throat and an anvil welded to each side plate at the rear lower corner of the throat. Each anvil has a bed plate and a back plate on which and against which the material to be cut is positioned. A blade guard depends from the handle and is contoured to lie close to the adjacent circumference of the blade and extend across the throat when the handle is in its lowermost position.
