A wrap around carrier for carrying bottle with a petaloid base having heel assemblies that have hinge doors with a vertical cut line in the bottom of each hinge with a horizontal cut line at the top of each cut line that extends inwardly towards the heel aperture formed by the door. This carton has a second cut line that is either at the bottom of the vertical cut line in each hinge or near the center of the door. None of these cut lines extend into the heel aperture. This combination of cut lines facilitates the control tearing of the cut line at the top of the vertical cut line into the heel aperture.

1. A wrap around carrier for carrying a plurality of bottles with a petaloid base having a plurality of toes comprising:a. a top panel, opposite side panels and a bottom panel consisting of two flaps that are locked together; andb. each side panel having a heel assembly for each bottle that is to be placed adjacent said side panel, said heel assembly being formed in said side panel adjacent the bottom panel, said heel assembly having two doors with a heel aperture between the doors, with each door being hinged by a hinge to the side panel, said hinge extending from the bottom panel upwardly towards the top panel, said hinge having top, bottom and center portions with a vertical cut line in the bottom portion of the hinge which has an extension that extends inwardly as the first cut line towards, but not connecting, the heel aperture at the top end of the vertical cut line nearest the center portion of the hinge, each said hinge being provided with a second cut line selected from the group consisting of (i) a cut line extending inwardly from the vertical cut line nearest the bottom panel, but not connecting to the heel aperture, and (ii) at least one cut line extending between the center portion of the hinge and the heel aperture, but not interconnected to either; andc. said first cut line extending inwardly near the top end of the vertical cut designed to facilitate a controlled tear between said first cut line and the heel aperture when a toe of the petaloid bottle is off centered in the heel aperture towards the door with said cut line. 2. The wrap around carrier of claim 1 in which the second cut line is a cut line extending inwardly from the vertical cut line nearest the bottom panel, but not connecting to the heel aperture. 3. The wrap around carrier of claim 2 which also has a cut line between the second cut line and heel aperture, but not interconnecting to either. 4. The carrier of claim 1 in which the second cut line consists of at least one cut line extending between the center portion of the hinge and the heel aperture, but not interconnected to either. 5. The wrap around carrier of claim 4 in which there are two cut lines extending between the center portion of the hinge and the heel aperture but not interconnected to the either. 6. The wrap around carrier of claim 1 in which the bottom panel has inner and outer flaps, with a portion of the outer flap overlapping a portion of the inner flap, with the inner flap having at least one lock ledge formed by an opening cut in the inner flap, the outer flap having at one primary lock for each lock ledge, formed by a slit cut in the outer flap; the outer flap having at least one secondary male lock formed as an extension of the flap, and the inner flap having one secondary female opening for each secondary male lock, said opening formed by a slit and fold line which forms the flap in the secondary female opening, said flap leaning against the secondary male lock when it has been extended through the female opening to assist in holding the secondary male lock in the vertical position in respect to the outer flap so that the lock does not become accidentally disengaged. 7. The wrap around carrier of claim 2 in which the bottom panel has inner and outer flaps, with a portion of the outer flap overlapping a portion of the inner flap, with the inner flap having at least one lock ledge formed by an opening cut in the inner flap, the outer flap having at one primary lock for each lock ledge, formed by a slit cut in the panel flap, the outer flap having at least one secondary male lock formed as an extension of the flap, and the inner flap having one secondary female opening for each secondary male lock, said opening formed by a slit and fold line which forms the flap in the secondary female opening, said flap leaning against the secondary male lock when it has been extended through the female opening to assist in holding the secondary male lock in the vertical position in respect to the outer flap so that the lock does not become accidentally disengaged. 8. The wrap around carrier of claim 3 in which the bottom panel has inner and outer flaps, with a portion of the outer flap overlapping a portion of the inner flap, with the inner flap having at least one lock ledge formed by an opening cut in the inner flap, the outer flap having at one primary lock for each lock ledge, formed by a slit cut in the outer flap, the outer flap having at least one secondary male lock formed as an extension of the flap, and the inner flap having one secondary female opening for each secondary male lock, said opening formed by a slit and fold line which forms the flap in the secondary female opening, said flap leaning against the secondary male lock when it has been extended through the female opening to assist in holding the secondary male lock in the vertical position in respect to the outer flap so that the lock does not become accidentally disengaged. 9. The wrap around carrier of claim 4 in which the bottom panel has inner and outer flaps, with a portion of the outer flap overlapping a portion of the inner flap, with the inner flap having at least one lock ledge formed by an opening cut in the inner flap, the outer flap having at one primary lock for each lock ledge, formed by a slit cut in the outer flap, the outer flap having at least one secondary male lock formed as an extension of the flap, and the inner flap having one secondary female opening for each secondary male lock, said opening formed by a slit and fold line which forms the flap in the secondary female opening, said flap leaning against the secondary male lock when it has been extended through the female opening to assist in holding the secondary male lock in the vertical position in respect to the outer flap so that the lock does not become accidentally disengaged. 10. The wrap around carrier of claim 5 in which the bottom panel has inner and outer flaps, with a portion of the outer flap overlapping a portion of the inner flap, with the inner flap having at least one lock ledge formed by an opening cut in the inner flap, the outer flap having at one primary lock for each lock ledge, formed by a slit cut in the outer flap, the outer flap having at least one secondary male lock formed as an extension of the flap, and the inner flap having one secondary female opening for each secondary male lock, said opening formed by a slit and fold line which forms the flap in the secondary female opening, said flap leaning against the secondary male lock when it has been extended through the female opening to assist in holding the secondary male lock in the vertical position in respect to the outer flap so that the lock does not become accidentally disengaged. 11.
