There's a whole range of sizes, and yes, most are readily available, even back to the early 1900's Some small shops probably still use cutters that old.
The place I worked for had a foot press that cut round corners that was made around 1910. And the leather guy I shared a shop with for a while had a similar press.
Paper cutters are readily available, but ones like the factories used aren't small. They'd fit pretty well in a garage, though.
