Abstract

See full text

A cutting tool with first and second pivoted shearing blades has a guide member mounted to the first blade for transverse movement relative to the first blade and toward and away from the second blade. The guide member has a transverse restraining surface that confronts a transverse guided surface of the second blade during cutting of a workpiece to resist axial separation of the cutting edges away from the cutting plane. A yieldable, resettable mechanism enables release of an uncut cable captured by the guide member in the event the planned cut is in error or must be postponed. Examples include a ball detent, a magnet, an over-center extension spring arrangement and a torsion spring.
