the halves are bonded -likely w/ a plastic-weld adhesive.
they are not intended to be split.

of course, as yours is a complete loss -try razoring around the perimeter until they split.
if you can replace the cord, then try "tenax" or similar to rebond.

oh, and take a pic of the inside! i am sure we would all like to see the guts while one is open.

also, 140x's are often on ebay for good prices.

Hi !

I also have the exaxt same problem with the 1401's cord severed near the handset. Could anyone tell me how to get the handset apart so i can rewire it? It's just too beautiful to throw away.

Thank you.

Having had a good long look I thought as much. I did wonder whether the two halves slid off each other with a clip mechanism under the small switch cover but my suspicions are confirmed. The dog has won!

Thanks for your reply David

You'll need to replace the handset, unfortunately, the 1401 is not able to be repaired.

My sister in law has a 1401 which the dog has chewed!! the cord has been severed very close to the handset. The cost of repair is likely to be nearly as much as a new phone so I'm trying to do a DIY job. Any one have any experience of taking the handset apart? I have got the slides that protects the small switches on the back off and I'm sure the two parts slide off each other but I can't manage to get them apart. Anyone help?

Thanks
