Depending on the woods used I generally use a #3 Ultra Reverse or a #5 Ultra Reverse.  I have used in the past however a #2 Spiral Reverse.  It takes some getting used to cutting the lid, however it ends up being nice and square when cutting the puzzle piece or the key.  A sharp new blade and taking your time is the key here.  Try and rush the cutting with a flat blade and you end up forcing the cut ending up with cuts that look like a bow staff.  (

Great work!  I like the look of the end grain on the boxes.  I can see that looking nice on a larger box also.
