ABSTRACT:
An assembly and method for cutting through a cast of the type having flexible wrapping and a rigid outer shell. The assembly comprises a side plate having edges defining an elongate notch for receiving the cast, a cutting blade rotatably mounted on the side plate adjacent the notch, and means for rotating the cutting blade relative to the side plate. The edges of the side plate defining the notch include at least one cutting portion. The cutting blade is maintained in sliding scissors-like engagement with the cutting portion of the side plate to shear the cast between the cutting portion and the cutting blade as the blade is rotated.
