So it is for cutting out burned areas in carpet and cutting a replacement piece to repair the carpet. 6 minutes ago, Bill D said: Or cutting holes in asbestos tiles. Both correct!!! This is called a Cookie Cutter. It would have normally been used for carpets but vinyl and commercial tiles were also possible. He'd get a scrap from the customer. (He always left pieces behind back then). Cut the "Cookie" out of the scrap. Then cut the Cookie in the existing floor around the cigar/cigarette burn. Cutty pasty easy peasy. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lynnmor 7,785 #27 Posted April 27 I have a bandsaw blade with that exact shape that we used for cutting leather. At one time we had two leather products; a micrometer pouch and a holster for metal shears. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
