Abstract
The present invention is directed to a cutting device including a first blade portion having a handle and a cutting surface and a second blade portion having a handle and a cutting surface. The first and second blade portions are coupled together and intersect at a pivot point. A rivet is mounted through the pivot point attaching the first and second blade portions, where then rivet further comprises a head elevated with respect to the first blade portion. A cover for covering at least a portion of the first and second blade portions is provided. The cover has a rivet head receiving slot so that when the first and second blade portions are in a closed position and when the cover is positioned over the first and second blade portions, the rivet head frictionally engages the receiving slot so that the cover is frictionally attached to the rivet head.
