The term "glass cutter" describes the device used to cut glass. Typically, the glass knife's cutting edge is constructed of an alloy or diamond, both of which have a harder surface than glass. Any kind of glass can be sliced with a glass cutter. The glass cutters can be used to cut flat glass with a thickness of 1 to 8 mm and are classified into diamond and alloy roller types. Making a mark on a piece of glass is known as cutting it. With further power applied along the scored seam, the glass breaks apart due to the weakening caused by these cutting instruments and the score.
