The invention relates to a cutting tool, in particular to a knob removing tool used for removing rail welding beading. The invention provides the technical scheme that the knob removing tool for removing welding beading comprises a plurality of cutter bodies and locking mechanisms, which are connected end to end in sequence; wherein, the cutter bodies are mutually hinged end to end in sequence, or at least two adjacent cutter bodies therein are connected into an integrated body, and the other cutter bodies are mutually hinged; wherein, the locking mechanisms which are mutually matched and connected are arranged on the cutter bodies positioned at the front end and the rear end; cutting edges are arranged on the cutter bodies, after the cutter bodies positioned at the front end and at the rear end are mutually connected and locked, a section shape of the rail consists of the cutting edges of the cutter bodies, and the cutter bodies after locking comprise a left cutter body, a top cutter body, a right cutter body and a bottom cutter body. The knob removing tool is characterized in that a mounting hole is formed in the top cutter body, and a positioning component is mounted in the mounting hole, which is partially higher than the cutting edge of the top cutter body. The knob removing tool has the advantages that the main body of the rail can be not damaged in the knob removing process, the polishing quantity for workers is reduced, and the service life can be also prolonged.
