Abstract:
A handheld candle wick cutting device enables an individual to trim the excess long candle wick on any flat-top candles, but especially on candles positioned deep in a narrow candle jar/holder or the like. The wick cutting device includes a main outer tube and an inner tube which has an outer diameter slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the outer tube. The inner tube is rotatably installed within the outer tube and being longer than the outer tube. A pair of cutting blades are mounted to the outer and inner tubes perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, at an operable location to cause a cutting action when one of the tubes is rotated. Each blade has an off-center cutting aperture which when superimposed create a through opening in the cutting device, where a candle wick may be partially inserted therein and perpendicular to the two cutting blades. When one of the two tubes is rotated, the cutting aperture in each blade is caused to close round the candle wick and the edges of the cutting apertures cut the candle wick, where the cut portion of the wick is retained within the inner tube for easy and clean removal and disposal of the cut portion of the wick.
