glass cutter

Window installer's tool

A glass cutter is a tool with a small hardened wheel or diamond point used to score glass so it can be snapped cleanly along the line.

The term also refers to a person who cuts glass professionally, whether for windows, mirrors, or artistic work.

The glazier ran the glass cutter along the edge with practiced ease.
