The free thread portion extends at least up to the proximal end of the shaft. In the interior space an actuating mechanism is mounted, the proximal end of which essentially extends up to the proximal end of the shaft. At the distal end of the actuating means a knife is attached which cuts the free thread portion upon actuation of the device.
