The cutting tool comprises: a rigid frame enclosing an open area, a means for attaching a controlling line, agate means, and at least one blade mounted on the frame relative to the controlling line mount. The gate means is designed to allow the object to be placed in the open area, once the object is placed inside the open area the controlling line can be pulled taut at a safe distance and the object will be pulled against the blade and cut. |
