Abstract
An improved suture cutter for cutting high strength sutures used in arthroscopic surgeries includes a movable handle that moves rotationally around a pivot. This rotational motion is translated through a linkage into near linear movement at the distal end of a moving member. At the distal end, the moving member pushes a cutting blade onto an inclined stationary blade and thereby cuts a suture captured between the moving cutting blade and the inclined stationary blade.
