Abstract: A wick trimmer and capture device for trimming, to a predetermined length, a wick of a candle formed with a primary and a secondary wick well. The trimmer device includes an elongated, actuatable handle assembly that has a grip assembly at a proximate end and having first and second prongs at a distal end. Projecting distally from the first prong, a gauging anvil is also included that is formed with a well edge that is configured with a lateral dimension small enough to fit within the primary well and sufficient in width to span a secondary well diameter. An adjustable trim plate is slidably mounted from the second prong and is formed to have a trim blade, which is arranged in a confronting relationship with the gauging anvil.
