ABSTRACT:
A tool for cutting an elongated pipe is disclosed which includes an annular collar selectively positionable on the pipe for slidable movement along the length of the pipe to a predetermined position and separate selectable rotational movement about said predetermined position. A cutting member is pivotably mounted to the annular collar, so that as the annular collar and cutting member are rotated about the predetermined position, a circular score is formed on the pipe. Further rotation of the cutting tool results in cutting of the pipe through the score. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the annular collar includes a radial expansion slot for expansion of the collar and frictional engagement of the pipe to be cut, the cutting member includes a blade mounted between opposing first and second blade holding members and a biasing spring attached to the first blade holding member with a fastener.
