ABSTRACT:
A cutter type knife comprises a hollow handle, a housing in said handle adapted to receive a removable blade fixed in position relative to said handle and projecting at least partly from one end of said handle. A blade cover is slidably disposed within said handle to be movable axially between a first position in which it is retracted into said handle and a second position in which it is adapted to surround or cover the part of said blade projecting from said handle. Means are provided for moving said blade cover between said first and second positions consisting of a trigger pivoted to said handle and a transmission mechanism is adapted to convert rotation of said trigger into axial displacement of said blade cover within said handle, whereby when said trigger is depressed said blade cover is moved to said first position.
