Abstract:
A package or carton is provided that incorporates a cutting edge without the need for a separate cutting element. The front panel of the package has an upper exposed end that is formed into a cutting edge by a plurality of complementary and opposing pair of cutting teeth. The package is especially adapted to hold material that is stored in a roll. A selected length of the material can be separated from the roll by pressing the material against the cutting edge and pulling the length of material thereby cutting the material in a linear fashion. The package of the present invention provides a more economical and environmentally friendly packaging solution with an integral cutting feature.
