ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a cutting apparatus for cutting and removing plastic material from a package as well as an apparatus for cutting boxes or tape. The cutting apparatus includes a main body having an applicator end and an opposite handle end. Within the main body is a slidable base having a piercing device with a sharp pointed end for piercing the material located on a first end. On an opposite second end is a cutting device for pulling and cutting the material. The cutting device has a hook-shaped tip and a cutting edge adjacent the hook-shaped tip. A device may be selected and extended through the applicator end by positioning a selector button to position the selected device adjacent a slotted opening in the applicator end. The cutting device and the piercing device are extended by sliding the base along a longitudinal track within the interior of the main body.
