Abstract
A tool for precisely severing sheet material at a uniform predetermined distance from the line of intersection of two surfaces. A wide variety of precise cutting operations may be performed, including operations that leave a uniform predetermined overlap and operations that precisely sever the sheet material at the line of intersection. The tool has a body with a flat bottom surface, a straight front edge, a beveled surface extending between the front edge and the bottom surface and thumb screws for securely retaining a cutting blade. Also disclosed is a removable spacer plate which may be engaged with the body to perform additional cutting operations.
