ABSTRACT:
A device for separating the perforated strips from the side edges of sheets of computer printout paper or similar paper and like products. The device has a main body with limit stops for accurately positioning a sheet of paper inserted into the device and a hinged top adapted to be folded over the body to grip and hold the edge of a sheet or sheets of paper inserted into the device. The top has teeth which extend into the perforations of the paper and a clamping edge to engage and securely hold the strip of paper while the sheets are separated by pulling them away from the device. The device may be provided with indicia to form a scale or other implement, and in one form of the invention has a shaped end and edge defining a letter opener and/or a tool for separating the sheets of paper along their fold lines.
