摘要

An improved knife holder (10) for a chipper disc. A knife holder (10) for holding a knife has a first clamping portion (14) and a second clamping portion (16) for clamping the knife therebetween. One of the clamping portions (16) pivots about a pivot point (22) for clamping the knife and for releasing the knife so that it may be easily removed from the knife holder. In the relative position of the clamping portions in which the knife (12) is clamped and in their relative positions in which a space is opened up around the knife permitting its removal, the clamping portions are rigidly disposed with respect to one another.
