' FRUIT AND VEGETABLE CUTTER.
APPLICATION FILE D APELZ' I915. 1,155,91.
Patented Oct. 5, 1915.
CLINTON KEEBAUGH, QFCANTON, WISCONSIN.
FRUIT AND VEGETABLE CUTTER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed April 2, 1915. Serial No. 18,816.
To all whom if mag concern:
Be it known that I, CLINTON KEEBAUGH, a citizen of the United States, residing at Canton, in the county of Barron and State of W'isconsin, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fruit and Vegetable Cutters; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to knives and cut-- ters, and more particularly to a knife adapted to be positioned over the forefinger of the operator for cutting cucumbers.
Another object is the provision of a novel and eflicient cutter formed entirely of a 3 represents a side elevation of the cutter,
applied to use. Fig. 4 represents a transverse sectional View on the line 44 of Fig. 2.
Referring to the drawing in detail, wherein similar reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, the numeral 5 indicates generally the blank from which the cutter is formed, which is shaped to define a body portion 6, a pair of oppositely directed lateral extensions 7 and an intermediate lateral extension 8, constituting the cutting element. The body 6 and lateral extensions 7 at one. end thereof Patented 0ct.5, 1915.
are curved, as illustrated in Figs. 2 to 4, to
define a finger-engaging ring 8 and the opposite reduced end 9 of the body is directed inwardly with relation to the finger'ring 8 to provide a rest for the finger tip. I
The intermediate lateral extension or blade 8* is pointed and the edge thereof is curved to define a curved cutting edge 10 designed for cutting the stems of cucumbers, or other vegetables, or .fruits.
From the foregoing it is clearly evident that, the cutter may be conveniently and inexpensively manufactured. from a single piece of sheet metal and when positioned upon the tip of the forefinger, as illustrated in Fig. 3, will be extremely useful and efficient in severing the stems of fruits and vegetables.
What I claim is:
1. A cutter comprising a finger-engaging ring, an angular extension at one end of said ring, and a fiat blade formed integral with said ring and having a curved cutting edge.
2. A cutter formed from a single piece of sheet metal including a finger-engaging rin".
a reduced angularly directed extension on said ring constituting a finger tip rest, and a curved cutter blade projecting laterally of 'said ring.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
CLINTON KEEBAUGH.
I Witnesses FLORENCE THOMPSON, Mrs. R. E.MALONE.
