Abstract:
A safety device, “tie cutter” designed to be worn about the neck on a conventional neck tie and concealed from view by the shirt collar that can quickly sever the neck tie by manually pulling on the device. The tie cutter includes a thin flat body and an embedded blade. The cutter body has generally hour-glass shaped opening defined by a circular “loop” opening and a “blade” opening that merge together through a narrow “throat” opening. The blade is situated so that the sharp beveled edge extends laterally into and across the blade opening opposite the throat opening and the loop opening. The loop opening provides a “tie loop” through which a neck tie is passed when the tie cutter is donned on a neck tie and worn. It also provides a “finger loop” for hooking and pulling the tie cutter with a finger to sever a neck tie from around the wearer's neck.

Claim (Index 2):
The safety device of  claim 1  wherein the throat opening is configured to allow the neck tie to pass therethrough from the first opening into the second opening when the body is fitted to the neck tie and manually pulled away from the neck tie.
