I find these letter openers at about every business. If you don't see them ask if the business has them. I got one from the bank, insurance company, hardware store, and pharmacy. And they are very inexpensive to buy.

Thanks! I think I just found a use for those Harbor Freight carpet cutters too. Haven't tried it yet but looks promising.

I tried the Harbor Freight cutter for cutting batting from the roll and it did not work. I think because the blade is on the top and needs to be on the bottom to get the leverage to cut. Maybe I could turn it upside down next time?
