Glass Cutter: A simple small tool for cutting glass.

The tool above is a cheap one and it has a tungsten carbide tipped cutting wheel. More expensive ones have diamond tips.

The notches in the end are in theory an aid to breaking off small section of glass.

The tip has only to score the glass and then pressure on the glass will snap it. See this page for more details.
