ABSTRACT:
An "S" shaped, double-blade carpet cutter is provided which simultaneously cuts the edges of two adjacent, overlapped carpets from the back side, to provide closely matching, abutting edges which can thereafter be seamed. The lower carpet edge is inserted into one opening of the "S", and the overlapping edge of the upper carpet is inserted into the other opening of the "S". One blade is mounted on the first or top arm of the "S" and the other blade is mounted on the second or middle arm of the "S", and the blades extend perpendicularly out of the plane of the "S" and are aligned to cut along a single seam line. A handle is attached to the third arm of the "S" to allow the cutter to be pulled along the overlapped carpet edges. Thus, when a first edge of carpeting is placed between the first and second arms, and an overlapping second edge of carpeting is placed between the second and third arms, and the cutter is rotated about the axis of the first arm so that the "S" is horizontal, the points of the blades will be driven up through the carpet backing from underneath; when the handle is pulled along the overlapping edges, both pieces of carpeting are cut along a seam line to produce closely matching, abutting edges which can be seamed when the short pieces cut off the edges by the cutter are removed.
