Questions about this tool

Which end is better for reaching a small seam?

Try the tapered end where it can enter freely. Use the flat end for a wider contact area.

Is it a general-purpose cutting blade?

It is a micro spatula for placing and lifting. Choose an appropriate cutter when you need to sever material.

Can I use it instead of a glue brush?

Use the spatula for a narrow placement. A micro brush gives a different contact surface for spreading the adhesive.
