Summary:METHOD OF GRIPPING A STRAP FOR BONDING THE STRAP END PORTIONS TO EACH OTHER A method of gripping a leading end portion of a binding strap so as to facilitate the bonding of strap end portions to each other and apparatus therefore, includes the provision of a movable jaw and a stationary cutter wherein the jaw and cutter are provided with convex and concave portions which intermesh with each other with the convex portions of the jaw and cutter being substantially longitudinally aligned or disposed opposite the concave portions of the other. In this manner, the strap portion being gripped is gripped in an undulated or corrugated manner so as to insure secure gripping thereof even under hightension, high-torque conditions, such as, for example, as the binding strap is being tightened and tensioned in preparation for the bonding operation of the overlapped leading and trailing end portions of the binding strap encircling the article being bound.
