      Use an old framing square with your knife. Work on a scrap of plywood with a good edge.

      The back side am sure you are going through lot of utility blades.
      For roofing material cut from the back side am sure you are going through lot of utility blades.

      For your utility knife they work very well because you pull the blade up through the blade up through the shingle.
