Glass Cutter Combo Tools (E.A.I.A.) by Ken Turner
|
|
Description: |
| Monce's patent introduces the hard steel wedge-shaped wheel at the tip of a glass cutter. This patent was also "folded" into a combination tool -- no. 140,426. A similar design patented by Frank R. Woodward (no. 166,954) was incorporated into several combination tools including one with a corkscrew. (Note -- this description was revised in June 2021 based on an 1877 ad for Woodward's combination tools.)
In MONCE & IVES v. ADAMS (1874) the patent was held to be valid and Adams' found to have infringed. One summary of the case can be found on pg. 177 ff. of the Febr. 2, 1875 PATENT GAZETTE. |
