ABSTRACT:
The invention relates telecommunications. It concerns in particular the cutting of optical fibre. It provides a hand tool which is generally shaped like pincers whose two legs move apart during operation, the optical fibre being fixed to each of the free ends of the legs which stretch it and press it against a rounded forming part fixed to one of the legs while a knife comes up to the forming part to start breaking the fibre by scoring it, all these operations being controlled by operating a single trigger lever. It applies to the forming of connections at the ends of the optical fibres.
