ABSTRACT:
A flexible material wall trimming tool (10) cuts flexible material (32) such as flexible flooring material and flexible wall cove material at the intersection of a floor (34) and a wall (35). An elongate low profile block body (12) is formed with a bevel angle pusher surface (15) at the back end (14) of the block body (12) for pushing the wall trimming tool in the elongate cutting direction (18) using the palm of a hand. The bevel angle pusher surface (15) delivers force components downward against the floor (34) and sideways against the wall (35) for accurate cutting. A blade slot (20) is formed on the cutting side (28) of the block body (12) near the back end (14). The blade slot (20) is also formed at a compound angle. A blade holder (24) rigidly clamps a blade (22) in the blade slot (20) at the compound angle. A tool angle trim adjuster (42) is slidably received in a tool angle trim slot (40) on the opposite side (38) of the block body (12) from the cutting side (28). The tool angle trim adjuster (42) is used for adjusting the tightness of fit of flexible material (32) cut by the tool (10). A finger grip block (50) is formed on top of the block body (12) for gripping the tool (10). Overall the tool (10) is approximately the size of a hand for stable manual control and accurate cutting.
