cutting mat

Blade-safe workspace

A cutting mat is a self-healing surface used when cutting materials with a blade or rotary cutter.

The mat protects the work surface beneath and preserves the sharpness of the blade.

Cutting mats typically feature a grid pattern for measuring and aligning cuts, and are standard equipment in sewing, quilting, and crafting: She laid the fabric on the cutting mat and lined up the rotary cutter.
