T0 a/ZZ whowb it muy concern:
Beit known that I, JERE L. WENTZ, a citi- Zen of the United States, residing at Bath, in the county of Northampton and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Cigar-Tip' Cutters, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to cigar-tip cutters, and has for its object to provide a cigar-tip cutter of simple, compact, and economical construction and adapted to be conveniently carried in the pocket.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a plan view of a cigar-tip cutter embodying my improvements. Fig. 2 is a similar view showing the movable part in a different position from that represented in Fig. l. Fig. 3 is a face view of the device, one of the side plates of the casing being removed. Fig. 4 is a transverse sectional view taken on the line 4 4 of Fig. 2. Fig. 5 is a sectional view taken on the line 5 5 of Fig. 1. Figs. 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 are sectional views showing different embodiments of my invention. Fig. 1l is a face view of a knife or cutter blade of different form from that shown in the other views. Fig. 12 is a face view of a cigar-tip cutter embodying my invention, but differing in some respects from the forms shown in the other views, the front side plate of the casing being removed.
The cutter is preferably of cylindrical form and consists of a casing formed of two parts held together and having mounted between them a sliding cutter blade or knife. lVithin the casing is formed a slideway for holding the knife and directing its movements, such slideway being usually formed by special construction of one or both of the parts of which the casing is composed, as will be described. The knife is arranged to be operated by the finger of the user, for which pur pose the casing is provided with a finger-ap erture and the knife-blade with acorresponding aperture, that in the blade, however, being of less size than the one in the casing.
The casing (represented inFigs. l to 5) con sists 0f two flat and preferably circular plates C C', each provided with an aperture a to receive the finger of the user and an aperture l) to receive the tip of a cigar. It is of course to be understood that the plates are so arranged when united to form the casing as to cause .the guide d therefor.
these apertures to come opposite each other. Between the plates C C is a spacing-plate D, which becomes part of the casing, so constructed as to form a guideway d for the cutter blade or knife F. These three plates C, C, and D are suitably secured together, as by screws or pins E. 4
The knife consists of a thin plate of metal preferably steel, having a sharpened edge e and an aperture e, end of the finger of the user. The metal of which the knife is formed is of about the same thickness as the intermediate plate D and is situated in the recess formed between the outer plates C C and the side walls of the intermediate blade that constitute the guideway for the knife. The registering apertures a in the outer plates of the casing are formed entirely within the peripheral circle of these plates, so that they are surrounded bythe -metal of the plates, and they are preferably elongated in a direction parallel with the lines along which the knife is caused to move by It will be seen, particularly by reference to Fig. 2, that the aperture .e in the knife, which registers with the apertures a in the casing, is of less size than the elongated dimensions of the apertures a vfor the manifest reason of permitting the movement of the finger of the user within the slots a when passed through the aperture e The method of using the cutter is apparent. The cutter is grasped between the thumb and one of the fingers of the user, the finger being inserted through the apertures a in the casing and the aperture e in the knife. lf now the knife be moved so as to uncover the aperture b in the casing, a cigar-tip may be inserted into said aperture and clipped by moving the cutting edge of the knife across the aperture t.
As `represented in Figs. 3 and 1l, the cutting edge of the blade may be variously shaped. In the latter view it is straight and diagonally the guideway, while in the former the cutting edge is V -shaped The latter construction is for some reasons preferred.
As represented in Figs. 6 to l0, the recess and guideway for the cutting-blade of the x05 be variously constructed. As represented in Fig. 6, the casing is formed of two plates, the inner faces of which are rabbeted, as indicated at 2, to form the knife recess and guide.
lmife may adapted to receivethe disposed relative to the edges of roo In Fig. 7 the casing is 11o again represented -asV being formed oftWo l the cutter being entirely plates; but here one of the plates isfconsiderably thicker than `the other, andthe thicker one is rabbeted or cut out to form the knife recess and guide, as indicated at- 3.r
The formv of casing represented in Fig. 8 is quite similar to that represented in Fig. 7 but' differs in that the thinner plate of the casing is formed With a circumferential flange 4, that, is bent over the the 'otherlpl'aterlhe construction of Figi'. 9 is` similar to that Withr addition, that bandi secured to the casing.Vv`

2.y A cigarltip cutter comprising a casing having an aperture to receive the finger and an aperture to receive the tip of a cigar, the casing being formed With an interior guide- Way for directing the movements of the knife, and a knife mounted on the said'guide- Wayhaving a cutting edge adapted to traverse the aperture in the casing for the tip of the cigar, and having an aperture to receive the finger, the fingeaperturesinthe'casing and the knife being. arranged to register, and the aperture in the knife being smaller' than that inthe casing, substantially as set forth.
3. In a cigar-tip cutter, the combinationof a'casing formedofa pair ofplates secured together face to facel and having formed between them a recess and a guideway for a knife or cutter, each plate having a perforation b to receive the tip of: the cigar and an elongatedrperforation a to receive the linger of the user, thevsaid perforationsinl the tWo plates being caused to register with each other, andv the finger-apertures being dis'- the periphery of the casing, and a knife of a thickness less than the thickness of the casing arranged Within the recess and guideWay in the casing, and
provided With the finger-recess-- e" entirely surrounded by the materialof'the knife, and smaller than the finger-aperturesinthe casing, substantially as set forth.
Intestimony whereof I affix iny signature in presence of tWo Witnesses.-
