Abstract
A belt cutter for cutting an end portion of a belt having regularly spaced ridges on one side. The belt cutter has a main body with a slot that receives the end portion of the belt. A blade extends from the main body into the slot. A deck having one or more grooves bounds one end of the slot. The grooves receive the belt's ridges and register the belt relative to the blade. A handle is provided to pull the cutter across the width of the belt in a direction parallel to the ridges for the blade to sever the end portion from the belt and form a new butt end parallel to the ridges.
