A hand-held cutting tool to remove a metal fitting ring from the outside surface of plastic tubing. The fitting removal tool comprises a first handle, a second handle, a bridge member, and a cutting blade. The first handle is pivotally connected to a first end of the bridge member by a pivot. The second handle is securely connected to a second end of the bridge member in fixed relation to the bridge member. The bridge member comprises a seat for snugly receiving the outer diameter of the metal fitting ring. The first handle comprises a hand gripping area and a cutting blade positioned between the hand gripping area and the pivot. The cutting blade is configured to make an off center cut in the metal fitting ring such that the underlying plastic tubing is not damaged in the cutting process.

The present disclosure includes a cutting apparatus for cutting a strap to a desired length. The cutting apparatus includes a handle body with first and second handles and a head affixed to the handle body. The head includes an attachment mechanism to allow a strap to be cut to be releasably secured to a first end the head. The cutting apparatus further includes a blade disposed proximate to a second end of the head. The length of the head or the distance between the first end of the head and the blade approximates a device body length. The present disclosure further includes a method of using a handheld cutting apparatus for cutting a strap to a desired length, such that the combined length of the strap and a device to be attached to an object, approximates the circumference of the object.

A magnetic nipper is provided. The magnetic nipper has a pair of elongate arms with opposed first and second surfaces. The pair of elongate arms are hingedly connected to allow the pair of elongate arms to rotate about an axle. The first and second surf aces each contain at least one magnet have a polarity such that the magnets repel.

A tile nipper is provided that includes a first member rotatably coupled to a second member. The first cutting edge includes a first cutting edge and the second member includes a second cutting edge. The tile nipper further include an adjustment mechanism configured to adjust a distance between the first cutting edge and the second cutting edge. The adjustment mechanism includes a first component and a second component coupled to the first component. The second component is biased away from the first or second member, and adjusting the first component while forcing the second component towards the first or second member adjusts the distance between the first and second cutting edges.

The invention provides a removable hoof nipper blade and hoof nipper incorporating the removable blade. The removable blade is adapted to be removably secured to the jaw end of the hoof nipper and provides a convenient means for a farrier to maintain a hoof nipper in a sharp condition without the need to sharpen the blades of the hoof nipper or keeping multiple hoof nippers on hand.

A cable tie removal tool includes a first jaw, a first cutting member, a second jaw, and a second cutting member. The first cutting member is connected to the first jaw. The first cutting member and the first jaw have a first included angle formed therebetween. The first cutting member includes a first cutting edge and a first convex portion. The first convex portion is disposed at one end of the first cutting edge close to the first jaw. The second cutting member is connected to the second jaw and is located at one end of the second jaw. The second cutting member and the second jaw have a second included angle formed therebetween. The second cutting member includes a second cutting edge, and the second cutting edge and the first cutting edge are disposed adjacent to each other in a fully closed state.
