Abstract: A holder for a glass cutter has a bent palm contacting member attachable to the handle of a glass cutter for steadying the cutter during use. Removably connecting the palm contacting member to the cutter handle is a tapered sleeve of rectangular cross section which cooperates with tapered legs provided on the palm contacting member for creating a wedging action securing the contacting member on the cutter handle. By placing the cutter handle between the forefinger and middle finger of a user's hand and fitting the contacting member snugly in the palm of the same hand, the operator is enabled to hold the cutter very steady while pressing on the cutter against glass to be cut.
