<p>A guided cutting system including first and second blade cartridges (10, 10') which are used in association with templates (12). The blade cartridges (10, 10') each include a head portion (14) and cover portion (16) wherein the head portion (14) includes a cutting blade (32) and a pair of guide pegs (24) which are adapted to be received within a peripheral groove (84) formed on a template (12). The cover portion (16) is adapted to be attached to the head portion (14) whereby the cover portion (16) acts as a handle for guiding the head portion (14) during a cutting operation and to cover and prevent contact with the cutting blade (32) when not in use. A different spacing is provided between the cutting blade (32) and guide pegs (24) whereby one head portion may be used for crapping a photograph and the other head portion may be used for cutting a corresponding backing mat for the photograph. In addition, the templates (12) for use with the blade cartridges (10, 10') may be designed with a predetermined outer and inner periphery extending around an open interior area (78) of the template (12) wherein guide grooves (84) for the guide pegs (24) are provided adjacent to the exterior and interior periphery for guiding the blade cartridges (10, 10') along exterior and interior guide paths.</p> |
