View Full Version : Acoustical Cotton Cutting Tool LonnyE 08-07-07, 01:55 PM Hey guys my contractor is having a bear of a time making cuts on thick acoustical cotton blankets.

The insulation knife just didn't "cut it" for me. I used a very VERY sharp knife, about 8" long, and sharpened it about every three cuts. MAKE SURE YOU USE HEAVY, HEAVY DUTY GLOVES!!!!! Mine was a Henckles Five Star carving knife. (Don't tell the boss ;) Worked great! Best, Tom Chinaclipper McCall 08-07-07, 03:33 PM Lonny: I ran into this problem too.
