A hand operated tool for cutting and trimming materials, such as carpet, wallpaper and like covering materials. The tool is particularly useful in the hanging of wall coverings and is made up of a pair of mating half sections, which form an elongated handle and a blade-holding socket disposed in angular relation to the major axis of the handle with a finger engaging area designed to assist the user in applying cutting force to the blade. A quick, disconnect anchor device is provided whereby a single spring biased pin is movable transversely through the walls of the blade-holding socket and an opening formed in the blade itself for locking the blade in operating position between angulated wall-engaging guide means, extending substantially along opposite sides of the blade's cutting edge.
