<p>The tape dispensers (21, 81, 121) of the present invention employ a variety of features which may be used singly or in conjunction with the other features. The features include a mechanism which extends the blade (43) when pivotal pressure is applied to a shield or lever (49, 103, 129), thus enabling the use of a sharper blade (43), and in a more extended configuration during the cutting of tape.
