  • Publication number: 20080250654
    Abstract: A dual-use knife having a circular blade and a guide rod combined together. When the rotatable circular blade is attached to a cloth-cutting guide rode a positioning cutting state of the stationary circular blade can be obtained so that the application range of the circular blade can be enlarged. In addition, the circular blade or the combination of the cloth-cutting guide rod and the circular blade can be positioned and operated on two sides of the knife so that the knife may be properly held by left and right hands. In addition, when the circular blade is combined with the guide rod, a circular blade upper cover can be rotated so that the position of the cutting point of the circular blade may be arbitrarily changed from 0 to 360 degrees, and a multi-function knife may be formed.
