The protective piece is connected with an elastic member to be against one side of the fixed blade opposite to the seat to shield the edge of the fixed blade. Therefore, when the user operates the bag neck sealer, the user's fingers can be protected from the fixed blade through the protective piece, preventing the fingers from being hurt so as to enhance the safety of the bag neck sealer.
