Magic Matter makes the matting tool in the SU catalog. It does not cut...you use a pencil and then cut along the drawn line.
I love mine when I use it for odd shaped items. I don't generally use it for straight lines.
Having said that, I wouldn't touch one with a built in cutter with a 10 foot pole. Here's why:
As you're tracing around, sometimes you hand will slip...either inside or out. If you're using a mechanical pencil, it's no big deal. You simply erase the stray line and continue on. If you're cutting, you need to start over...from the original image and cutting that out.
See if someone near you has one you can try before you buy it...you may like it more than you think (or, of course, you may hate it...and then you saved yourself $13).
