Abstract

Foldable, multipurpose shears can have a pair of shearing blades, each blade having a sharp side and a blunt side. The blades are connected to handles via a hinge, and the handles have one side that is straighter and another side that is more rounded or irregularly shaped. One of the blades includes a backward facing hook on the blade's blunt side. Additionally, the blunt side may have partially sharpened serrations. The blades can fold about the hinge for easier transport and storage and the shears are configured so that the hook does not extend past the handles when folded.
