Abstract

A device for curling and shredding ribbon includes a handle having a recess for receiving the end of a thumb of a person grasping the device. A support member extends from the handle and supports a plurality of flat, planar blade members extending perpendicularly from the surface of the support member. A diagonal surface forms a sharp edge on one side of the support member, and a second diagonal surface forms a sharp edge on the opposite side of the support member. A plurality of blades are disposed side-by-side spaced apart and parallel to one another along the length of the support member. Each blade is oriented to extend in a direction transverse to the longitudinal axis of the sharp edges formed by the diagonal surfaces. Each blade has a cutting edge formed around the free edges thereof and formed by opposed convex surfaces having the same radius of curvature. A shield is provided between the handle and the support member carrying the blades.
