The utility knife employs Olfa Corporation's "Limited NL" as its base model.

Premium Bandai has officially begun pre-orders for the highly anticipated "Mobile Suit Gundam Cutter Knife Char Edition 2." This special edition item will be available for pre-order on Thursday, April 11th, at the Sunstar Stationery Store on Premium Bandai's website. The cutter knife is set to ship in August and will cost 2,475 yen (including tax).

The cutter knife has an original color body with a distinctive two-layer paint finish that creates a deep metal red finish reminiscent of Char's own Mobile Suit. This distinctive finish transforms the knife from a simple tool into a collector piece that embraces the Gundam series' Char Aznable spirit and aesthetics.

The embellishments on the cutter knife demonstrate meticulous attention to detail. The insignia, which suggests Char's involvement, and the unit number "A12" printed on the rear add to its collection value. Furthermore, the plaque on the grip part proudly reads "CHAR AZNABLE," allowing fans to connect with the character every time they use the knife.

The utility knife is based on the "Limited NL" type of Olfa Corporation. This is not a random pick; Olfa's "Limited Series" is well-known among users for its gorgeous, sophisticated design and form, giving it an ideal foundation for this special edition. The collaboration between the Gundam series and Olfa Corporation brings together the worlds of anime and handicraft, providing fans with a one-of-a-kind, high-quality collectible.
