SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 314,255, dated March 24, 1885.
(No model.)
' To all whom it may concern:
some, for the nail has to be bent and broken off usually by the aid of a rasp, or by hammering on an ironlast, which is but a temporary expedient, for it soon works up again.
The object of my invention is the production ofa tool which may be readilyinserted wit-hin the boot or shoe, and by which the protruding nail or fastener may be cut off down close to or below the inner surface of the inner sole. My improved cutter has cutting'edges which are curved forward and upward from the under side of the tool, the cutting members being curved both longitudinally and laterally, whereby they may be placed in operative position on any part of the boot or shoe from the heel to the toe.
Figure l represents a shoe in longitudinal section, and my improved cutter introducedV therein to cut offa tack or fastener left with its point above the inner sole. Fig. 2 is atop' view of a part of my improved cutter; Fig. 3, a section in the line x w, Fig. 2, and Fig. 4 a section on the line x2, Fig. l.
My improved cutter is composed of two long arms or levers, a b, connected together by a pivot'screw, c, about which and within a space, c', between the two levers is placed a spring, c2, which acts normallyto separatethe levers. The cuttingedges of the cutter form parts of thejaws ab, connected with the arms a b, respectively, beyond the pivot c, the said cutting-edges starting from the lower side of the jaws, and being extended forward and upward in a curve, as best shown in Figs. 1 and 3, and ending at or just above the level of the upper line ot' thejaws. The jaws are curved in cross-section, as best shown in Fig. 4, and the bevel of the cuttingsedges is Such that when the jaws a b are closed on the tack or nail to be cut, the edges will act to out the nailliush with or a little below the surface of the inner sole.
The arms a b have projections a2 b2, which are of proper length to meet just before the cuttingfedges come together. A
The long arms and very sl1ortjaws,and the peculiar curve given to the jaws,enablea nail in any part of a boot or shoe from the shank forward tobe cut oft".
l claim- As an improved article of' manufacture, the herein-described cutting-tool having the long handles and the short jaws, the latter being curved,as shown and described,and having the curved cuttingedges to operate as set forth.
In testimony whereof l have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two sub scribing witnesses.
THEODORE A. MANCHESTER.
