  • The matboard core is visible from the front.

  • The Bevel Type refers to the angle at which the blade cuts the surface of the matboard when it deviates from the 90° right angle cut.

  • The Bevel Type determines the initial blade plunge position.

  • The Blade Depth must be above 16 in order for the CMC to prompt for the 45°+ Cartridge.
