This compact approximately 4-inch cutter was likely produced as a promotional or workplace advertising item for retailers, grocery stores, distributors, bottlers, or delivery personnel. Pacific Handy Cutter is historically associated with the original flat-style box cutter design, making this an appealing crossover collectible for fans of Dr Pepper memorabilia, vintage soda advertising, promotional tools, grocery-store advertising, Americana, and mid-century commercial ephemera.

We acquired a quantity of these in new old stock condition. They appear unused, but decades of storage have caused varying amounts of cosmetic shelf wear. Individual cutters may have scratches, scuffs, discoloration, oxidation, tarnish, spotting, residue, or wear to the Dr Pepper graphics. Some examples are cleaner than others.

The photographs show representative examples from our inventory. The cutter received may not be the exact one pictured. Early buyers will receive the nicest available examples whenever possible.

Includes ONE (1) vintage Dr Pepper Pacific Handy Cutter.

The blade remains installed and may be sharp. This item is intended primarily as an adult advertising collectible. Please handle and store it carefully.
