A tool for chamfering the ends of plastic pipe of various diameters comprising a main body having various concentric circular grooves of different diameters which are shaped and sized to receive the square-cut ends of standard size plastic pipe. Each circular groove has an associated cutting blade mounted transversely with respect to the circumference of the pipe in a recess on the outer surface of the main body and positioned so that as the tool is rotated about the square-cut end of a pipe inserted in its correspondingly-sized groove, a chamfer is cut on the outer circular edge of the pipe. During the chamfering process, cuttings cannot enter the pipe because the open end of the pipe is covered by the tool and cuttings leave the tool through the recess. Cutting automatically ceases when the pipe end becomes seated in the groove.
