ABSTRACT:
The armored cable cutter of the invention has an elongated saw carrier on which a circular saw blade is rotatable, hinged to an elongated cable carrier of U-shaped cross-section that defines a laterally opening cable receiving groove. A clamping member on the blade carrier, swingable about a trunnion axis parallel to the blade axis, has cable engaging surface portions disposed along a segment of a spiral about the trunnion axis to be at progressively increasing distances from that axis, the surface portions being configured symmetrically to the blade plane and for straddling engagement with a cable in the carrier groove. The clamping member, when swung into engagement with a cable in the groove, clamps it against one wall of the cable carrier and confines it with its diametral plane coinciding with the blade plane.
