ABSTRACT:
A cutting device particularly for use in grafting operations involving vines, plants and trees, having lever means (10,11) pivoted at (12) and coupled to a blade mount, the blades (22) of which co-operating with an anvil (25). A guide means (29) locates the vine, rootstock or the like over anvil (25). Movement of levers (10,11) toward each other causes blades (22) to pass downwardly and thus cut, with a shearing action, the vine, rootstock or the like, to form, in the example shown, a V-shaped notch, the other cut out portion of the vine having a V-shaped end. A suitable graft which has been previously cut out with the device is placed in the notch and bound in a conventional manner.
