Default Making shop rags

Does anyone have any hints on the most efficient way to cut them into
shop rages?

Doing them one by each with a pair of scissors is time consuming and a
PITA.


We buy them at a local thrift shop for .50 to $1 for a Walmart bag
stuffed full. I just nick the edge with a box knife or my tooth and
tear off what I need. I have to be a little careful that I don't get
a linty edge but they work well for staining, cleaning and anything
else.
