It is the blade that cuts off the surplus fabric or the thread chain at the seam. The machine named for it in the Pegasus list is the FS700P.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKnives trim the fabric edge or cut the thread and the chain. They work as a pair, a moving blade against a fixed one, and the cut is clean only when both edges are sharp and meet with light pressure, so knives are wear items.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePegasus part number: \u003cstrong\u003e236606B00009\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart name: Upper Knife\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Knives \u0026amp; Cutters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListed by Pegasus for: FS700P\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePegasus parts catalogues that list this part: FS700P\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChoosing the right part\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKnives of similar shape can differ in length, thickness and edge angle, and some are made for particular fabrics.
