What keyboard shortcut activates the Blade tool in the Edit page?

• A. B
• B. N
• C. C
• D. V

Answer: (A)

In the Edit page, tool switching is quick and keyboard-driven, and the blade function is tied to a specific key. Pressing that key changes the current tool to the blade, letting you cut a clip exactly at the frame you click on the timeline. This is essential for making precise cuts where timing matters, such as splitting a clip to insert a transition or adjust where an edit occurs. After cutting, you can switch back to other tools to move, trim, or adjust the pieces. The other keys shown correspond to different tools or functions, not the blade, so they won’t perform the cut.
