Abstract: Apparatus to cut or shear loop pile fabric by moving the loop pile fabric to be cut or sheared over a rotating cutting member which cuts the loops in the fabric but prevents the fabric backing material from being cut by the use of guard members for the cutting blades. The guard members are pivotally mounted to allow ease of blade sharpening.
