Dispenser for web material

A dispenser for containing a supply of flexible web material and for dispensing a portion of the web material and severing the portion from the remaining web material in the dispenser, comprising:

• a container formed by at least first, second, and third side walls serially connected to one another along longitudinal edges thereof that form corners of the container and a pair of opposite end walls connected to opposite end edges of the side walls, each of the side walls having at least a major portion that is substantially planar and is angularly oriented relative to the side walls adjacent thereto, the planar major portions of the side walls defining an external geometric profile of the container;
• an elongate opening defined in one of the side walls through which a portion of the web material can be dispensed;
• one of the corners of the container defining a recessed area formed by a first wall portion that connects with the first side wall and a second wall portion that connects with the second side wall, the first and second wall portions extending inwardly away from the external geometric profile and toward an interior of the container and being connected to each other at a concave corner, such that the recessed area is inside the external geometric profile, the first and second wall portions extending longitudinally for a length that is less than a distance from one end wall to the other end wall;
• a polymer track affixed to the container and disposed in the recessed area such that the track is inside the external geometric profile, the cutter track having a length substantially as long as the distance from one end wall to the other end wall;
• a cutter engaged with the track and slidable therealong for cutting a portion of web material dispensed through the elongate opening and laid across the track, wherein the cutter is entirely inside the external geometric profile;
• and
• wherein each of the opposite ends of the track is overhung by first and second non-recessed portions of the first and second side walls, respectively, the first and second non-recessed portions each being joined to an adjacent one of the end walls and extending longitudinally partway along the distance from said adjacent end wall toward the other end wall.
