The Cutter is one of Starfield’s more underrated weapons, as it can make quick work of low level enemy health bars without consuming ammo. However, there is one variant of the weapon called “Heller’s Cutter” that can be found very early in Starfield that includes an additional damage perk. Here is how to find Heller’s Cutter in Starfield.
