Abstract

A device for dispensing tape in desired lengths from a supply reel which is rotatably supported in a housing and fed out by means of a manually actuable drive wheel which also has, in the housing, a knife which is manually actuable in the direction of the tape to cut the tape. The device makes it easy to single-handedly separate from the supply reel a desired length of tape.
