An apparatus for modifying a sheet of a material (e.g., paper, cardstock, a plastic film, foil, fabric, etc.), or a substrate, includes a base, a handle and a plurality of tools held by the handle. The tools may be removably secured to the handle, and may be arranged in a variety of different ways. Each tool is capable of interacting with the substrate in a manner that will modify (e.g., cut, score, perforate, mark, etc.) the substrate. The handle is capable of being translated, or moved, at least partially across the substrate and of causing the tools to concurrently interact with and modify a plurality of laterally discrete, a substantially linear, substantially parallel locations of the substrate as the handle is translated at least partially across the substrate. Modular tools that may be used with an apparatus that holds a plurality of tools or with hand-held handles are also disclosed, as are methods for simultaneously modifying a plurality of laterally discrete, a substantially linear, substantially parallel locations of a substrate. 1. An apparatus for simultaneously interacting with and modifying a sheet of a material at a plurality of laterally discrete , substantially linear , substantially parallel locations , comprising:a base including a surface capable of supporting the sheet of the material; and being translated at least partially across the surface of the base, between a first location at or adjacent to a first peripheral edge of the base and a second location at or adjacent to a second peripheral edge of the base, the first peripheral edge and the second peripheral edge of the base being located on opposite sides of the base;', 'carrying a plurality of tools at a plurality of laterally discrete, spaced apart locations; and', 'causing the plurality of tools to contact and interact with the sheet of the material on the base while the handle is translated at least partially across the surface of the base and at least partially across the sheet of the ...
