In a tape cutter capable of cutting a tape completely and enhancing the durability of the cutter blade, a cutter holder is rotated by the engagement of a holder gear portion with a lever gear portion according to the rotation of an operation lever so that a cutter blade is moved toward a tape face. A sliding projection slides upwardly along an inclined face and the cutter holder is moved in the widthwise direction of the tape T. Therefore the cutter blade 13 presses the tape face and cuts the tape T while sliding in the widthwise direction of the tape T.
