Here is a link to purchase the handheld cutter: https://amzn.to/2QO8777 (The price has increased to 28.)

Other manufacturers make a similar tool. I happen to prefer this particular one because it is smaller, and more lightweight, which makes my hands and wrists happy. :) I also really like the ones made by Sheffield and also Master Mechanic for the same reason.
Another great thing about this tool is that you only have to buy it once; replaceable razor blades (https://amzn.to/2QDr7oS) are cheap, and easy to switch out.
Like all tools, this one is not w/out its idiosyncrasies/drawbacks: I often use an exacto knife in tandem w/it to finish. Also, it doesn't cut curves.
If you are a person w/limited strength and agility in your hands/wrists/arms, this may be the beginning (or restart) of a wonderful activity for you: polymer clay mosaic (you'll want to make thin 1/8" tiles)!

Discovering this tool was a game-changer for me because it allowed me to treat polymer clay tiles like any other mosaic tesserae (ie cutting it however I wanted, rather than being stuck w/baked tiles, the shape of which I couldn't fundamentally change).

Other info:
This mosaic is intended to hang indoors.
Wood substrate w/KILZ acrylic paint primer on it.
Adhesives: Weldbond and white silicone
Ungrouted
I did not put any sealer/glaze on these tiles. They don't need it, and I don't want them to be shiny.
