The Cut Model option is a one time only action which will not take effect until the Paste Model action is completed in a different window.  The Copy Model option copies the active model and its attributes to a buffer, which then allows the copied contents to be pasted into multiple windows.  If the target window already has a model loaded, the cut/copy contents will be overlaid with the existing model.

You can also use keyboard shortcuts to cut (CTRL+X), copy (CTRL+C), or paste (CTRL+V) the active model in the graphics area.
