45-Degree Bevel Mat-Board Cutter, Retractable Blade

Create a bevelled opening in suitable picture-mat board with a handheld 45-degree cutter. Adjustable blade depth helps set the tool around the board thickness.

• ✅ Create a bevelled edge - the head positions the blade at 45 degrees.
• ✅ Match the blade depth - adjustment suits different permitted board thicknesses.
• ✅ Control where the cut begins and ends - the start/stop mechanism governs blade engagement.

Practise the Opening Before Cutting the Final Mat

Mark the layout and use a suitable guide and sacrificial surface. A trial on scrap helps you set blade depth and understand the start and stop positions before cutting the visible opening.

Check the actual style's blade and material guidance; not every foam, plastic or thick board will be suitable. Retract the sharp blade for storage and keep fingers out of the cutting path.
