- Application filed November 11, 1914. Serial No. 871,536.
To all whom it may concern: I
Be it known that I, PERCY ABEL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Alton, in the county of Madison and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Knives, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in knives and more particularly to a linemans knife, the main object of the present invention being the provision of a knife of the above character which is generally used by linemen for cutting the insulation from wires when it is desired to' connect the loose ends of two or more wires.
Another object of the present invention is the provision of a cutting knife of the above character wherein the blade thereof is insulated from the handle and other parts of the knife and the handle is provided with a ring, whereby the knife can be readily suspended from the belt of the operator.
A further object of the present invention is the provision of a knife of the above character which will possess advantages in points of efliciency and durability, is inexpensive to manufacture and, at the same time, is simple in construction and operation.
With the above and other objects in view, the invention consists in the novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter referred to and more particularly pointed out in the specification and claim.
In the accompanying drawing forming a part of this application, Figure 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of a handle of a-knife constructed in accordance with my invention; and Fig. 2 is a similar view taken atv right angles to Fig. 1.
In carrying out my invention, I provide a handle which is generally indicated by the numeral 1 and may be constructed of wood, hard rubber or any other material suitable for the purpose and preferably provided in two sections, 2 and 3. The blade which is indicated by the numeral 4, is formed of crucible steel and the shank thereof is pro vided with a pair of spaced openings adapted to receive retaining bolts 5 which extend through the handle and through the openings in the shank, said bolts having the ends thereof counter-sunk as shown at 6,.so that the hand of the operator willnot come in contact with them. The sections of the handle of the knife are provided at their inner ends with opposed recesses to receive the shank portion 6 of the ring 7, said ring projecting beyond the inner end of the handle and adapted to be removably secured to the belt of the lineman or other operator, Whereby it can be quickly and readily removed for use, or placed back in position.
The space which as indicated at 8 comprehended between the inner end of the blade 41- and the shank 6 of the ring, is tilled with fiber or any other suitable insulating material 11 so as to insulate the ring from the knife blade. The insulation 11 incloses the inner ends and sides of the ring shank, as shown in 'Fig. 1. In view of the fact that the securing bolts 5 are sunk into the handle at each end thereof, the hand ofthe operator will not come in contact with these bolts and as the ring 7 is insulated from the knife blade, there will be no possibility .of short-circuiting the wires. The shank 6 of the ring 7 is securely retained within the handle by means of the rivets-9 which extend through the handle and the shank 7 and are counter-sunk as shown at 10. From thisit will be'apparent that the outside of the handle will present a smooth and unbroken surface.
From the above description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, it will be readily apparent that I have provided a simpleand durable linemans knife which can be easily carried about and will take up comparatively little room. It will be noted that the ring 7 and the shank 6 thereof and the knife blade are arranged in the same plane so that when the knife is attached to'the belt of the operator, the blade thereof will lie flat against the operators body, so that the operator will not be accidentally cut by the edge of the knife. Furthermore, by having the ring 7 secured to the outer end of the handle, this knife can be readily carried about by the lineman without interfering with the other tools at tached to his belt. My improved linemens knife, as herein shown and described, is ex tremely simple in construction and can be manufactured and placed upon the market at a comparatively low cost;
WhileI have shown and described'the .preferred form of my invention, it will be vention' into practice; without sacrificing any of the novel features or departing from the scope of the invention, as defined by the appended claim.
Having thus described this invention, what I claiin as new and desire to secure by Letters Pat ent, is
A device of the class described including a handle consisting of two sections, a knife blade having a shank arranged between the sections at one end thereof, a removable bolt extending through the handle and shank and having its ends counter-sunk within the sections, a ring provided with a shank arranged between the sections of the handle at the opposite end thereof, rivets extending through the handle and the shank and ring'to rigidly secure the ring in position, and means for filling the space between the inner ends of the knife shank and the shank of the ring, whereby to insulate the ring from the knife, as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony whereof I hereunto afiix my signature in the presence of two Witnesses.
PERCY ABEL.
