#$%^&*AU2019100719A420190808.pdf#####ABSTRACT A whipper snipper cord-cutting tool comprising two relatively pivotal parts, one of which carries two moveable blades and the other of which is so engaged with the blades to cause a simultaneous radial and rotational movement of the blades as the parts are pivotably displaced to one another. The blade's edge initially faces an opening. A small hole in the centre of the housing case in which a line trimmer cable is pushed and threaded through the open holes and when the parts are pivotably displaced the cutting edges of the blades effect a simultaneous inward and circumferential cutting action on the line cable.
