Drag Knife Info

I want to try finally using the V1 drag knife. I bought it for my Primo but never got around to it.
Very solid and slick design.

Interesting construction but I was surprise there is a spring load but only downward.

I did a forum search and found some info but any tips (no pun intended) on how to use? I saw the youtube in the Shop but curious on how to start. Does it damage glass if I use a plate glass sheet I have?
I was going to adapt to my rubber band spring holder and try it.

thanks

You can adjust the maximum that the blade extends put of the tip. I use mine mostly for vinyl, cutting the vinyl but not the paper backing. I have also used it to cut card stock, paper and plastic film.

Cutting through, I would not use it on glass. I use a cutting mat when cutting through, but have used glass for vinyl cutting.

EXCELLENT write up I missed in plain site!

MInor nit…
It’s generally bad form to mark one of your own posts as a solution -unless- you share the actual solution. Which would be true if you included your link in the post you marked as a solution.

Would you mind editing your post to put that link in, so when future users find that post via a search… it actually provides the link?
