diamond cutter

Facets precious stones

A diamond cutter is a person who cuts and polishes diamonds, or a tool used for that purpose.

The term also refers to a glass-cutting tool with a diamond tip, hard enough to score glass cleanly.

In slang, diamond cutters are visibly erect nipples—hard enough, the joke goes, to cut diamonds.
