A box cutter does not have to look like a workshop tool. The PLUS PICO FRIENDS Box Cutter wraps a ceramic blade in a soft silicone animal cover, with a choice of Seal, Penguin or Polar Bear. It is made for opening cardboard boxes and parcels, and it looks good on a desk.

Seal, Penguin or Polar Bear?

All three share the same construction. The difference is the character: a Seal, a Penguin or a Polar Bear, each with a soft silicone cover. The Penguin is the tallest at 49 mm high and the Polar Bear is the most compact at 79 mm wide.

Ceramic blade

The blade is ceramic, intended for opening cardboard boxes. Ceramic blades are a common choice for light packaging work, but they are different from metal blades, so handle the cutter as directed on the packaging and avoid prying or twisting.

Silicone cover and polycarbonate base

The animal shape is a silicone cover, which gives a soft look and feel, while the base and blade base are polycarbonate.
