Remember when we all used to cut carpet with a basic utility knife? I switched to a proper carpet knife with a hook blade for a job in Boise last year and it was a total game changer.

My uncle was a floor guy for 40 years. He always said the real trick was warming the blade on a radiator for a minute before cutting berber.

Remember hearing something like that from an old installer, @wadem89. I mean, it makes sense because cold blades can make that stuff fray. Maybe it's just me but those little tricks are what made the old guys so good.
