Mat Cutter and Blades

Cuts perfect straight or beveled mat edges with adjustable blade depth and angle

Cutting precise mats demands absolute control over blade angle and depth. This Dexter cutter delivers both through a simple knob adjustment that locks your blade at any position, from straight perpendicular cuts to classic 45-degree bevels. Chrome-plated construction resists corrosion while the adjustable mechanism maintains accuracy through hundreds of cuts.

Push it along a T-square or straight edge to execute clean, professional mat openings without the learning curve of heavier systems. The design keeps your hand positioned for consistent pressure and angle control, essential for avoiding the ragged edges that ruin otherwise perfect mats. Five No. 3 replacement blades come included, enough to mat an entire exhibition's worth of work before you need to reorder.

Professional framers and printmakers rely on this cutter for gallery presentations where mat quality directly impacts how viewers perceive the artwork. The adjustable depth feature proves particularly valuable when working with museum board or stacked mats, letting you set precise cutting depth to avoid scoring your backing board.
