English term or phrase: box cutter

Ahora mi texto habla de de elementos cortantes que no se consideran armas a menos que se usen en tal función, pero que no se permiten en la escuela, y especifica "pocket knives and box cutters". En España se usa "cúter", no recuerdo si en los países latinoamericanos también. Agradezco por anticipado vuestra ayuda.

cortador

Explanation:
Se le llama box cutter porque por lo general se utiliza para cortar cartón, pero se le llama simplemente cortador.
También lo conozco por exacto, pero creo que es una marca "X-act".
