A handheld punch tool includes a housing, a die holder coupled to the housing, a die supported by the die holder, the die and the die holder defining a feed slot therebetween for receiving a workpiece to be cut, and a punch configured to reciprocate within the die holder, with a main body defining a first longitudinal axis extending centrally through the main body and a punch element extending from the main body along a second longitudinal axis parallel to the first longitudinal axis. The punch element is configured to cut a first distance into the workpiece per stroke of the punch when the feed slot faces a first side of the punch and to cut a second distance into the workpiece per stroke when the feed slot faces a second side of the punch opposite the first side. The first distance is greater than the second distance.

What is disclosed is an improved cutting tool to provide improved cutting of small diameter materials, such as stems of flowers and other plants. The device provides a cutting mechanism that is parallel to or in the same plane of a circumference of a ring that is worn on the user's finger. This provides for an increased ergonomic cutting tool. The cutting tool has a blade and an opposing portion that is configured to retain the material to be cut while the blade is pressed into the material or the material can be pushed onto the blade. The device is preferably constructed of a unitary molded plastic with an integrated blade formed in the material.

A handheld punch tool includes a housing, a die holder coupled to the housing, a die supported by the die holder, the die and the die holder defining a feed slot therebetween for receiving a workpiece to be cut, a punch configured to reciprocate within the die holder along a punch axis, an electric motor disposed within the housing and having a motor shaft configured to rotate about a motor axis to reciprocate the punch, and a flywheel mass coupled for co-rotation with the motor shaft about the motor axis.

A hand-held drive cleat cutter-notcher for the cutting and/or notching of sheet materials, particularly drive cleats. The device in one example: a first handle; a second handle pivotably coupled to the first handle at a handle pivot; the handle pivot having a handle pivot axis; an inner jaw coupled to the first handle; the inner jaw comprising an inner jaw cutting edge substantially triangular in cross section in a plane parallel to the handle pivot axis; an outer jaw coupled to the second handle, the outer jaw having an insert surface beveled in a plane orthogonal to a cutting plane orthogonal to the pivot plane and orthogonal to the handle pivot; the outer jaw having a surface defining an outer jaw cutting edge adjacent which the inner jaw cutting edge passes; and wherein rotation of the second handle relative to the first handle rotates the inner jaw relative to the outer cutting jaw.
