Abstract: The present cutter is comprised of a plate for attaching to the top of a conventional hammer tacker. A notch at the front end of the plate is for engaging a raised head at the front of the hammer tacker. A belt clip projecting from the rear end of the plate is angled away from the hammer tacker for clipping to a belt. A side extension is arranged on the plate to one side of the notch. A shallow groove is arranged on the bottom surface of the side extension, and a blade is positioned in the groove. A thumb screw attached to the blade is positioned through a slot in the side extension. The blade is movable along the groove for extension or retraction relative to the front end of the plate. When extended, the blade is angled to one side of the hammer tacker.
