Cutting tool

A cutting tool, comprising:

• a bearing member for bearing a material to be cut, wherein a first axle and a second axle are provided at opposing ends of the bearing member,
• a first cutting member for cutting the material to be cut, wherein the first cutting member is fixedly coupled to the bearing member,
• a second cutting member for cutting the material to be cut, wherein one end of the second cutting member is pivotably coupled to the bearing member by the first axle, the second cutting member is configured to be able to pivot to come into engagement with the first cutting member to produce a shearing force on the material to be cut that is placed on the bearing member,
• a manipulation member for driving the second cutting member to pivot, wherein one end of the manipulation member is pivotably coupled to the bearing member by the second axle, the manipulation member is provided with an opening, the second cutting member is fixedly provided thereon with a connecting pin, the connecting pin is inserted in the opening to accomplish coupling of the manipulation member and the second cutting member, thereby allowing an upward or downward external force applied to the manipulation member to drive the second cutting member to pivot about the first axle, and
• an avoidance part being configured to avoid the manipulation member from contact with the material to be cut during cutting;
• wherein the cutting tool is configured such that when not in use at least a part of a cutting edge of the second cutting member is overlapped with at least a part of a lower edge of the manipulation member.
