Being the C.O.B. That I am I used a Coat Hanger, my Weller 8200 Soldering gun and hammer to make my own "Hot Knife" It works Great!!! I'll try and post a pic this weekend when I get back to the shop. It's 22 degrees right now sooo, I'm stayin inside!!!! If you don't have a soldering gun you can usually buy em on eBay for $10 -$20 bucks and them make the "Knife Blade" from a coat hanger real easy. Just beat the "Blade" out flat with a hammer, then grind it flat, then bend it into shape. Made mine in about 10 minutes. Or you can buy a Weller "Rope Cutter" blade for $10 bucks and do the same thing but making your own works just as good if not better.
