Looking at the cut draws our gaze to raw materials, but also to the tools we use on them. Industrial chain saws, hand drills, laser cutters: this issue is a compendium of names and shapes, from ancient to ultramodern, from artisanal (Tools for cutting leather), to industrial (Industrial cutting methods). Cutting means finding balance: it often requires both strength and a light touch, as well as precision, sometimes down to the micron. Artisans who work with gemstones and have no margin for error, like those Tristan Pierard meets, are all too familiar with these constraints.
