MATBOARD CUTTING SYSTEM INCLUDING A CARTRIDGE-MOUNTED BLADE

摘要

Systems and methods for cutting matboard at an angle between 5 and 90 degrees with a replaceable cartridge are described. The system includes a blade, blade cartridge, and footblock. The blade is double-edged and double-beveled and designed to fasten into the cartridge without slipping. The blade cartridge is secured in the footblock. The cartridge is designed to hold the blade at an angle to the material to be cut and to cut by pulling or pushing the blade through the material. Because the blade is secured into the cartridge, the position and angle and depth of the blade relative to the material remain constant.
