Abstract: A bender and shaper for die cutters and perforators for the printing industry. The die cutters and perforators are generally an inverted "T" shape with the center leg of the "T" constituting the knife or perforator. The bender grips the side flanges of the "T" and with a swinging arm causes the cutters or perforators to be bent around the circumference of the wheel members employed to grip the side flanges. Various desired shapes of die cutters and perforators may be made without distortion of the cutting or perforating edges.
