Provided is a rebar binding machine that reliably performs a gripping operation on a wire using a simple configuration. A binding machine comprises a first movable gripping member (70L) that displaces in a direction approaching and away from one side of a fixed gripping member (70C), a second movable gripping member (70R) that displaces in a direction approaching and away from the other side of the fixed gripping member (70C), and a bending unit (71) that causes the first movable gripping member (70L) and the second movable gripping member (70R) to approach and move away from the fixed gripping member (70C). The fixed gripping member (70C) comprises a shaft (77) that rotatably supports the first movable gripping member (70L) and the second movable gripping member (70R). The bending unit (71) comprises an opening and closing pin (71a) that presses into an opening and closing guide hole (77L) provided on the first movable gripping member (70L) and into an opening and closing guide hole (77R) provided on the second movable gripping member (70R).
