Abstract
A cutting device includes, at least one stack of cutting elements attached to a cutter surface having, a first element and a second element attached to the cutter surface. A third element is attached to the first element and the second element. The three elements are sized and shaped such that prior to attachment to the cutter surface the three elements are restable in a stable manner on the cutter surface due to gravity alone. A plane-defined-surface defined by one of the two planes of a modified gilmoid of the third element positioned further from the cutter surface is oriented at an angle of about 35 to 55 degrees relative to the cutter surface.
