Ditto. Carpet knife worked perfectly for me. Better application of force than a plain utility knife.

When i first tried to cut my stall mats with a circular saw i very quickly realized it wasn't going to work. It cut poorly, and made an awful mess. i used a utility knife with a new blade and it cut like butter. i did make my cuts on the low area between the raised parts.

Utility knife is what I used but those things are HEAVY! I quit using them and now use 2x8’s.

I used reciprocating sawz-all. I might try utility knife next time for cleaner edges, but reciprocating saw would come out again if that wasn’t going well. Love my stall mat leveling blocks.

Here's another method using a jigsaw:

i use the 1/2" stall mats, and use a sharp utility knife, make several passes to score through slowly.


it takes about 5 passes to get through.

I've used a jigsaw with a knife blade. Not always easy to find the blade, but they are out there.

use a utility knife & new blades but the key is to have a 2x4 under the cut area so that the mat opens the gap as you make the cut.

I use Horse Stall Mat which has a really good comfort overall which I think you should take a closer look at if you should choose maybe in the future.
