The Olive Cutter and Olive Puller work in different ways and at different angles. The Olive Cutter is great where there is little room at the end of the pipe. The olive puller works where there is more room. This product also has a power tool attachment which some times helps when the olive is severely compressed onto the pipe. Olive Remover brands Olive cutters come in two different types, a plier type and a screw type. The plier type is best if you have space to work with, whereas the screw type is best for small spaces. The original version features pressed steel handles and a water jet profile of tool steel to create the blades. The blades are housed in a body of tool steel. The handles are injection moulded around or slid on to the handles. How do Olive Removers work ? Jonathan Collier, Managing Director adds “products will go through iterations which often we never see at the original outset of the product; we also have new designs of the product coming out in 2018.”

Unlike an olive puller which can damage the underlying copper pipe work, an olive cutter lets you perform a very accurate cut, so you can remove the olive without damaging the rest of the pipe. The Monument Olive Cutter was originally launched in 1998. It is single sized and designed to cut through copper 8mm 10mm 15mm and 22mm olives found in compression fittings. An olive cutter (also known as an olive splitter) is a hand tool that uses two sharp blades to cut an olive off a copper water pipe. They can also be used to cut off rings and ferrules. The Made In Britain product is available in Monument, Instinct and Entity brands. The Ox version of the olive cutter is not Made In Britain. The Nerrad version of the olive cutter was originally supplied by Monument.

To use a screw type olive cutter, the process is the same, except you screw the tool to cut instead of squeezing. John Collier, Chairman of Monument Tools wants inventors to feel comfortable when approaching a manufacturer to design and market their invention. Often inventors have no experience of working with manufacturers, let alone bringing a product to market.
