An apparatus for cutting wrapping paper is provided. The apparatus is adapted for use in association with a countertop, such as a surface of a workbench or the like. The apparatus includes a retention or retainer mechanism and a knife blade mechanism which are mounted in association with a feed slot in the countertop surface. Paper fed from a roll of paper stored underneath the countertop extends upwardly through the feed slot. The retention mechanism, preferably through means of a floating retainer member, pinches an extension of the paper against a wall of the feed slot, to prevent the paper from falling downwardly through the feed slot during apparatus use. The preferred retainer member comprises a circular rod maintained in an operable position by means of a ramp member. The preferred apparatus includes a hinged knife blade arrangement selectively orientable in a first, horizontal, storage position and a second, substantially vertical, cutting position.
