ABSTRACT:
A bandage cutter which includes a short, thick, relatively blunt ended finger which extends in spaced generally parallel relation along one edge of a generally flat disk-shaped handle. The finger curves to a terminal end; and the finger defines a throat between it and the handle with an open mouth. Preferably, a thickened rim is provided about the throat protectively shielding the cutting edge of a blade spanning the throat. The blade of stainless steel presents a cutting edge at a slope of about 45.degree. to the edge of a bandage. A curved rocker surface on the handle is provided to manipulate the cutter to a preferred cutting angle while a bandage is held taut for initiating a slicing action. The handle includes a bearing surface for pushing by the index finger of a user while simultaneously the handle is grasped between the thumb and middle finger, on opposite sides of the handle respectively, to orient the attitude of the cutter while slicing action takes place.
