Exacto blade
Is there a more generic term for an exacto? I think exacto is a brand? It is not a common term in Europe as far as I know. I guess it is sort of a scalpel like hobby-knife? I mean, it becomes clear from the text what it is, but the audience for this Wiki isn't american persé. Felsir 05:26, 3 March 2006 (EST)
