What do you use to cut them so that the edge is even?

I donated my big mat to the computer tech department at our high school. It wasn't useable for me, but they are still getting plenty of use out if with the stuff they have to cut with exacto knives. The art department could use it too.

I cut one of my old ones up into various size squares. I needed a 18 1/2" sq template so started with that and then cut 3 more blocks. You can't see through them, but they are really good for cutting background block, etc.
