ABSTRACT:
A one-handed knife with associated claws for holding an object while being cut is disclosed. A handle with a central linear axis is formed of a rigid material having an open forward end and a closed rearward end with a cylindrical opening extending rearwardly from the open forward end. A cutting blade has a central curved axis and a downwardly facing cutting edge. A motor is located within the handle adjacent to the open end with an associated power source couplable with respect to the motor to impart electrical power to the motor. A coupling member having a forward end secured to the blade and a rearward end secured to the motor is provided to transmit a reciprocating motion of the motor to the blade for cutting purposes. A pair of resilient claws is secured to the handle and extend forwardly toward the forward end of the blade at an angle upwardly and away from the blade to a region above the blade. The resilient claws then extend downwardly essentially perpendicular to the blade axis and terminate in points, the resilient claws being located on opposite sides of the cutting blade.
