Cutting device
A cutting device is disclosed. The cutting device has a body member formed from a first material and including a cavity extending along a length of the body member from a first end of the body member to a second end of the body member that is disposed on an opposite side of the body member as the first end, a cutting assembly formed from a second material and attached to the body member, the cutting assembly including a protrusion, and a cutting member disposed on the cutting assembly. The body member includes an aperture extending from the cavity to a third end of the body member that is disposed between the first and second ends. The cutting assembly is attached to the body member based on the protrusion being received in the aperture. The first material is more flexible than the second material.
