A cutter of a printer including a rectangular housing in which a paper feeding roller and a fixed blade are integrally coupled to each other. The cutter includes a movable member corresponding to a plate-shape member having a slot at the center of a body provided at an upper side of the housing corresponding to the fixed blade such that a movable blade at one side is engaged with the fixed blade while being selectively reciprocally moved. The cutter includes a motor within the housing generating a forward or reverse driving force, a gear unit including a driving gear installed in a driving shaft of the motor, a reduction gear engaged with the driving gear and an idle gear engaged with a shaft gear. The cutter includes an eccentric plate coupled to an upper surface of the driven gear for applying external force for reciprocal motion to the movable member.

A cutting device of a scissors type includes a fixed edge, a movable edge, and a support shaft configured to support the fixed edge and the movable edge to be capable of mutually rotating. A movable edge main body of the movable edge including a cut-off edge is cut into, centering on the support shaft, a fixed edge main body of the fixed edge including a cut-off edge. The cutting device includes a receiving member provided along at least an edge front side of the fixed edge main body and an edge front side of the movable edge main body and a pressing section configured to press at least one of the fixed edge main body and the movable edge main body to tilt in the opposite direction of the receiving member to be received by the receiving member.

A reciprocating tool includes a motor, a reciprocating member, and a crank mechanism. The motor is disposed in a housing. The reciprocating member projects from the housing. The crank mechanism converts rotation of a rotation shaft of the motor into reciprocation of the reciprocating member. The crank mechanism rotates around an axis in a lateral direction by rotation transmission from the rotation shaft, and the crank mechanism includes a crank member having an eccentric pin, a connecting rod coupling the eccentric pin to the reciprocating member, and a balancer coupled to the eccentric pin, and the balancer is supported by the eccentric pin alone in the housing.
