A cutter arrangement for automatically trimming flat products, such as leaflets, magazines and books transported along a horizontal path includes a clamping mechanism positioned along the path for clamping the products, respectively, during a trimming operation. A counter-knife is fixedly positioned above the horizontal path in a location corresponding to the position of the clamping mechanism and has a cutting edge. An up and down movable knife is coordinated with the clamping mechanism and positioned below the horizontal path beneath the counter-knife. The movable knife has a cutting edge for cooperating with the cutting edge of the counter-knife during an upward movement of the movable knife for trimming a respective one of the flat products clamped by the clamping mechanism.
