Abstract
A hand-operated ratchet cutter with a movable and a fixed handle, wherein the fixed handle forms a first fixed blade, and a movable blade is hinged to an upper end area of the fixed blade, for shearing interaction in a cutting plane with the fixed blade. The movable blade moves in a plane parallel to the cutting plane, and the fixed blade has a first flat side. A fixed jaw with a second flat side () facing the first flat side is formed that also extends up to the upper end area of the fixed blade. A passage slot for the movable blade adjusted to the thickness (d) is formed between the first and second flat side, so as to ensure the shearing interaction between the movable and fixed blade even under a load by having the jaw act as a supporting jaw.
