ABSTRACT:
A tool and method are provided for manually cutting twine wrapped around a bale. The tool includes a stem having a handle attached to one end and a hook at the other end. The hook opens reversely toward the handle. The hook includes an outer edge sharpened for cutting through ice and twine. The hook also includes an inner dull surface facing toward the handle for selectively engaging the twine upon placing the hook between the bale material and twine. The dull surface permits a user to pull the twine away from the bale without severing the twine. This allows the user to easily grasp the twine in his hand, and then cut the twine using the outer edge of the hook.
