A cutter includes a blade, a handle, a holder, a pivot and a pin. The blade includes an aperture and a slit. The handle includes two lateral plates each of which includes an aperture and a recess. The holder includes a block formed between two lateral plates. The block is inserted in the slit when the blade is inserted in the holder. Each of the lateral plates of the holder includes a rear aperture and a front aperture. The pivot is selectively inserted in the apertures of the handle, the front apertures of the holder and the aperture of the blade to keep the holder in the handle. The pin is selectively inserted in the recesses of the handle and the rear apertures of the holder to keep the holder in a desired angle relative to the handle.

A long reach cable cutting tool includes a handle, a motor electrically connectable to a battery, a trigger electrically connected to the motor to provide power from the battery to the motor when the trigger is activated, a pump connected to the motor, the pump is activated to displace a first fluid, a hydraulic actuating system connected to the hydraulic pump, the hydraulic actuating system is movable by the displacement of the first fluid to displace a second fluid, a pole having a first end and a second end, the pole connected to the handle at the first end, and a tool head connected to the pole at the second end, the tool head including a tool head hydraulic actuator hydraulically connected to the hydraulic actuating system, the tool head hydraulic actuator is movable by the displacement of the second fluid to cause relative movement of the actuator with respect to the tool head.

A device for cutting and bending a hollow elongate tube. A measuring subassembly is adapted for measuring a desired size of the tube. A cutting subassembly is adapted for cutting the tube to the desired size. A bending subassembly is adapted for bending the cut tube to a desired angular orientation. The bending subassembly includes a base controlling a radius of a bend to be formed in the cut hollow elongate tube, and a user grippable handle. The user grippable handle is configured to enable a user to rotate the cut hollow elongate tube, relative to the round base, to form the bend in the cut hollow elongate tube.

Cutting devices and associated methods are described. In one aspect, a cutting device includes an annular support body defining an axial space into which a pipe to be cut can be inserted, the body formed of a rigid material and including a blade-bearing portion and a non-blade-bearing portion, wherein the blade-bearing portion is secured to the non-blade-bearing portion by a hinge mechanism allowing the two portions to be movable between an open position in which a pipe can be inserted, and a closed position in which the pipe is engaged by the body, wherein a part of the blade-bearing portion spaced from the hinge mechanism includes a blade that protrudes radially inwards of the body, such that in use the urging of the two portions towards the closed position urges the pipe against the blade so that rotation of the cutting device around the pipe cuts the pipe.

A cutter includes a platform, two handles, a blade, a lever, two pawls, a helical spring and a torque spring. The platform is connected to the first handle. The lever includes a ratchet formed at a rear end and a block formed on a side. The blade includes a rear end formed with a slit for receiving the block. The first pawl is pivotally connected to the second handle. The torque spring includes an end in contact with the first pawl and another end in contact with the second handle for keeping a tip of the first pawl engaged with the ratchet of the lever. The second pawl and the handles are pivotally connected to one another. A helical spring includes an end connected to the second pawl and another end connected to the lever. The tips of the pawls are alternately engaged with the ratchet.

A peeler device removes a thin layer from the outer surface of the end of a plastic pipe or tapping tee. In the preferred embodiments, the device has a main body and a mandrel. The pipe to be peeled is pushed onto the mandrel when the mandrel is in an out position. As the main body is rotated, a blade advances onto the plastic pipe and peels a thin layer off the outer surface of the pipe as it is advanced. The main body is rotated until peeling is complete. There may be a sight window in the main body to permit visual confirmation of when peeling is complete. A spring loaded blade lever is actuated to raise the blade and the pipe is pulled out of the main body.
