  • Patent number: 5740611
    Abstract: A grooming device including a stem, a first and a second arm extending from one end of the stem, the first arm having a first flat surface and the second arm having a second flat surface arranged substantially parallel to the first flat surface. An angled surface is located adjacent to the first flat surface and a blade is located adjacent to the second flat surface such that when a force is exerted on the first and second arms, the first and second flat surfaces come in contact with each other and the blade slides past the angled surface. A housing case member in the general shape of a rectangle and having an opening, configured such that the stem and first and second arm fit inside the opening, encases the tweezer-scissor member when the grooming device is in the folded position. The tweezer-scissor member rotates around a pin which affixes the tweezer-scissor member to the housing case member.
