All parties can say cut, including the cutter. If he calls it, he gets the part behind the knife, just like any of the others.
In the above scenario, the cutter has an incentive to yell cut as soon as the knife passes the 1/3 point, then each of the remaining people has an incentive to yell cut when it's passed half of the remainder (or 1/3 of the total).
