You can use cut the same way that you use extrusion, except it cuts. You simply create your sketch, select it, and specify how deep you want it to cut, and press 'ok'. Perhaps you should investigate the features a little more. It's good to know different ways of accomplishing the same task. Using cut as opposed to extrusion just allows you to keep your features a little more organized (cut coincides with cutting and extrusion coincides with extending).
