I am using a rotary cutter but this is thick fabric! I earn a big halo when I'm finished. My arm is out of shape for cutting this much, I'll time it so it doesn't give me a super arm ache...
Just make sure you are cutting WITH the nap of the corduroy, not against it. And don't try to cut more than one layer at a time. I used to sew a lot of corduroy when my kids were young. Not any more!!!
