Twenty years ago in Cherry Hill, NJ., there was a frame shop that would sell the mats and let you cut them using their equipment. You might see if there is a place near you like that. You would get some instruction from someone who new what to do, and you could find out how adept you are. There is some skill involved with stopping the knife at the right place.

It's interesting. I've gotten completely different answers on this.  Some
have written privately and said "you'll never get it right, don't try",
others have said "Do it yourself".

For now, I've found some places online thta will do standard sizes cheaper
than I could cut them.

Honestly, I'm just trying to spruce up the house to sell......

I suspect the right answer is to have them cut for me.


Unless you only have a couple to do, this will be a very expen$ive way
to go.  Far cheaper to buy your own mat cutter and spoil a few mats in
the process of learning how to use it.  Any decent arts/crafts store
will sell you a mat cutter and matting material.  (Aaron Brothers,
