ABSTRACT:
A stapler includes a base, a cover coupled to the base, a driver for driving a leading staple from a supply of staples into a workpiece, a handle constructed and arranged to actuate the driver and move the cover towards the base, and a cutting assembly. The cutting assembly includes a pair of benders constructed and arranged to engage and bend the legs of the leading staple, a stationary cutter, and a pair of movable cutters that interact with the stationary cutter to cut an excess length of each of the legs of the staple. Movement of the cover towards the base causes the movable cutters to move towards the stationary cutter.
