Abstract: A bolt cutter comprising a bolt cutting head and a pair of handles. The bolt cutting head includes a pair of blades and a pair of links. Each link is coupled to one of the pair of blades. Each of the handles defines a longitudinal axis and includes a handle portion and a grip sleeve portion. The handle portion is coupled to one of the pair of links, and the handle portion has an outer surface with a tip projecting therefrom. The grip sleeve portion surrounds the handle portion and is movable along the handle axis of the corresponding handle between a retracted position and an extended position to adjust a length of the corresponding handle. The grip sleeve portion includes an inner surface having a slot provided thereon. The slot selectively receives the tip to adjust the length.

Abstract: A cutting tool including a first handle, a second handle, a first head portion, and a second head portion. A force transfer mechanism interconnects the first handle, the second handle, the first head portion, and the second head portion. The force transfer mechanism includes a plurality of flexible links configured to resiliently deform and move the first head portion toward the second head portion in response to movement of the first handle toward the second handle. The first and second handle portions and the first and second head portions are integrally formed together with the force transfer mechanism as a single monolithic structure.

Abstract: A step drill bit including a shank operatively couplable to a tool, a body portion coupled to the shank, the body portion including a tool bit tip and a plurality of progressively sized, axially stacked steps, the body portion defining a hollow cavity, and an inner structure having a plurality of support members extending within the hollow cavity.
