ABSTRACT:
A utility knife with a rotary blade magazine also has a safety catch carried by the blade transport mechanism. The safety catch has a manually engageable actuator moveable relative to the transport mechanism between operative and non-operative positions to prevent or permit respectively sliding movement of the transport mechanism in the housing. The knife further has an end cap removably and rotatably secured in the housing, and a rotatable and removable ratchet member adjacent a rear end of the magazine, the ratchet member being connected to the magazine whereby rotation of the ratchet member effects rotation of the magazine and having ratchet teeth engageable with ratchet recesses in the housing to enable the ratchet member to be clicked from one position to another. The end cap is connected to the ratchet member whereby rotation of the cap causes rotation of the ratchet member and subsequent rotation of the magazine.
