An improved electrosurgical cutting device (10) for connection to an electrosurgical generator (22), has a non-conductive support member (12) with a peripheral edge (16), a conducting member (14) distinct from the support member, and disposed along at least a portion of the peripheral edge of the support member. The conducting member is electrically connected to an electrosurgical generator suitable for transmitting sufficient high frequency electrical energy to the conducting member, thereby enabling the conducting member to cut body tissue. The support member has a configuration that facilitates the manipulation of body tissue either with or without the presence of electrical energy at the conducting member.
