Abstract
A cutting tool designed for changing or repositioning blades without requiring internal access to the tool, as by opening or otherwise taking the handle apart for access to the blade. The tool in one preferred form has only the end opening, out of which the blade extends for cutting, for gaining access to the blade to reposition or change it. A blade holder for holding a cutting blade rigidly in place while cutting but allowing the blade to be readily repositioned in or removed from the holder for replacement or positional adjustment therein. The holder is configured such that it adjustably and slidably holds the cutting blade in a selected position by lateral surface area contact or wedging of the blade in the holder in a cutting position.
