Please DO NOT use one of the 'cutters' shaped like a four-inch square.
In fact, these are improperly described in catalogs as 'cutters'.
Instead, they are 'crushers', ruining the appearance of what cost you
and your bees so much effort to produce.
Instead, use on of these 'crushers' to very lightly mark the comb.
Then take as sharp a knife as you can get and cut along these marks.
This will produce sharp delinations of the cells and be very
attractive in a package.
All dealers sell square 4" clear rigid boxes for cut comb.
Unfortunately, they now cost $.75 to $.90 each. Please use these and
not the cheap (not inexpensive, but CHEAP) 'meat trays' being sold
that have a clear (flexible) top and an opaque bottom. Again, these
give an image of CHEAP to the consumer rather than the image of one of
nature's finest products!
