Good nippers for a good price; very efficient in terms of value.
Tried it out recently and it certainly makes the cut when it comes to model kit building. It is light and easy to handle and can make the small, precise cuts I usually need to make with little to no strain on the plastic. It is no Godhand but it comes more than close enough esspecially at $30-ish dollars. I'd recommend these if you want high quality at a good price.Read full review

It’s a Tamiya tool say no more amazing
I have several sprue cutters and I’ve fettled all of them to make them better but these really are the top banana typically Tamiya and if you shop about are cheap for what you get. They’re awesome they actually cut the parts from the sprue not pop it of leaving a nasty hole to fill, yes the blades are thin so prone to damage but just don’t drop them and they’ll last you a life time. Highly recommend everyone gets themselves a set of these they’re awesome.Read full review

Must have
One of the best sprue snips on the market, super sharp and durable. Feel really nice and have a good weight to them.
They cut through the sprue like butter with very very minimal cleaning required if your picky.
Nice sharp edge with slim point which gives great access even to the tighter areas.Read full review

Great snips!
In my modeling I have used several different sprue cutters and this is the BEST! The blades are sharp and remove parts so cleanly that a couple of swipes with a fine sanding stick remove the remaining "burr" with ease.Read full review

Outstanding Side Cutter
This side cutter is what I needed. Works great cutting parts off of spruces. Makes excellent cuts and get into tight spots.Use only on plastic parts. An excellent tool to add to your modeling tools.

Best scale modeling side cutters
Awesome product. Top notch engineering. They are precise and make a clean cut as one would expect from Tamiya products.
Excellent product, Tamiya!

Clean cuts! Makes sprue-cutting quick and fun.
Quality feel and construction. Cuts VERY close to the sprue with negligible sanding required after. Among the best hobby-grade cutters ive used.

Great for their purpose!
These cutters are great for shaving off the remains of the sprue gates when removing the parts of your modelling kits from the sprues.
But they are not intended for thicker parts, and absolutely not metal parts. Use other cutters for that. Tamiya 74093 are great for less precise cutting.
I've tried other brand cutters, but none that are as well balanced in price, performance and availability.Read full review

Smooth as Butter
Before this I used a hobby knife to cut out the parts. These fancy cutters are smooth as butter. You no longer have to risk snapping thin pieces or slicing smaller pieces.
