   What happens if you cut a card sanded?

   • In all these types of trimming, it remains hard to replicate a real factory cut and real aging. The stock of a card will age from being handled and oxidation from the atmosphere. This causes edges to discolor, even if it is slightly. A newly cut or sanded edge will be freshly exposed card stock and can look “fresh” in comparison to unaltered edges.

   How do you know if a card has been cut?

   • There is a particular consistency seen in factory cut cards, and it cannot be the same with an edge that has been trimmed with a razor or a paper cutter. When you look closely at the edges of a card, and it appears to have hair (fiber-like pieces of paper), this could be a sign of trimming.
