The status bar in the bottom row of the main caret window shows how the mouse mode changes depending on your mode. When you cut, dragging with the left mouse buton draws the cut. I think shift-clicking terminates the cut, but it has been so long since I have done this, I can't recall for sure.
But before you resort to these measures, consider the Surface; Sections menu. You can select specific ranges of sagittal, coronal, and axial slabs (thickness you specify). Coronal 1mm slices are provided by default, though you might try sagittal ones. Play around with sections and see if it helps. This is just display and not actually editing the surface in any way, like way cuts would.
