Hi Robbie,
I recommend feeding the outer box and some vtkImplicitFunction such as
vtkBox (http://www.vtk.org/doc/nightly/html/classvtkBox.html) to
define the knife into a vtkCutter
(http://www.vtk.org/doc/nightly/html/classvtkCutter.html).
Use one of the 3D widgets to let the user place the Box interactively.
cheers,
