And I should add that it’s an awesome pennant, too!
The little yellow tool is a plexiglass cutter. It basically scores the plexi, which then snaps cleanly. The plexi that comes in those cheap poster frames is very thin but I’ve also used this tool on heavier plexiglass (a 4’ x 8’ sheet). The utility knife would probably work on the thin stuff although the yellow tool only cost a few bucks. I used the utility knife to cut the cardboard backing and the “frame.”
