An apparatus and method are provided for surgical removal of a ring. The apparatus includes guards rotatably connected, handles rotatably connected to the guards that each include a portion partially disposed within the respective guard, a guide connected to the guards, and blades disposed on the portion of the handles. The blades contact with at least one of the guide and an inner surface of the respective guard. A rotational axis of a joint between the guards, a rotational axis of a first handle and a first guard, and a rotational axis of a second handle and a second guard are substantially parallel. Movement of a first end of the first handle toward a first end of the second handle results in movement of a second end of the first handle toward a second end of the second handle, and movement of a first blade toward a second blade.

A cushion back cutter is formed from a first side plate, a second side plate, and a center plate between the first and second side plates. The center plate includes a slot that forms a blade holding pocket with a bottom opening to receive one or more blades. A blade clamp is inserted into the blade clamp opening of the first side plate, and a blade clamp fastener tightens to cause the blade clamp to press the blades against the second side plate to hold the blades in position. The center side plate forms a row guide for guiding the blades of the cutter between adjacent rows of carpet tufts. The row guide may include a region having continuous notches, which tend to move the carpet tufts out of the path of the blades to avoid shearing them.
