bevels

Cuts on slants

Bevels are angled edges or surfaces that meet another surface at other than a right angle.

A bevel cut slants across the thickness of wood or glass.

Picture frames often have beveled edges.

The bevel on a chisel or knife blade creates its cutting angle.

To bevel is to cut or shape such an angle: He beveled the edge of the mirror.
