It is NOT the cutter but your technique.  If you continue to have problems use 
a 1200 SE single edge blade.  "Hooks" as they are called, come and go with any 
body.  I can cut mats with std blades and all of a sudden I start getting 
hooks.  So I switch to SE blades and the problem is solved.

  I use the same cutter and have one complaint about it.  The blade sees to 
flex a bit when first put into the board, and every cut has a light wave to it 
at the beginning of the cut.  Have you any experience with this?
