Inventors include Panosian, Michael H; and Keeler, Joshua M.
The application for the patent was published on August 07, 2026, under issue no. 32/2026.
Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed including a dual-mode, single-action convertible knife external housing that provides structural support for maintaining the blade orientation and integrity in various states of the knife and its operational modes. The convertible knife may have two modes of operation, cutting and scraping, which may transition from one mode to the other by a single uniform action of a user. The blades usable with the convertible knife include a trapezoidal cut-out held firmly in place by a trapezoidal protrusion of a blade clamp assembly and other structural elements. The convertible knife scraping mode provides an asymmetrical front-end configuration that allows the blade to get closer to the scraped surface compared with a symmetrical configuration to allow a shallower and more effective scraping angle.
