Reviewed in the united states on january 9 2018 i upgraded to this tamiya nipper from a pair of xurons i ve been using since the fall of the roman empire and this tool is a huge improvement in my opinion.
Tamiya sharp pointed side cutter review.
The blades are made from quality chrome vanadic alloy and are hand finished for optimum sharpness.
I have used several cutters and none of them is even a close match to this one.
Tamiya sharp pointed side cutter for plastic tamiya does a range of cutters to get your model off a sprue the 74123 set is the go to.
The weight feels really nice in your hand and the clipping motion has a really nice feel to it.
I also like the precision tip on these.
And they are razor sharp.
Industry leading loyalty.
Product description this precision side cutter has thin pointed blades and is ideal for removing delicate plastic parts from spree.
I hope this helps when it comes to trying to decide what nippers you need to do plastic model building.
11 tamiya tam74123.
They cut yes they actually cut not tear like most other cutters through parts trees like a hot knife through butter.
There is so much information out there and it makes it difficult to know where to.

My first pair were the tamiya sharp pointed side cutter 74035 and there is very little difference between the two cutters with the exception of these having slightly longer cutting blades.
These are the tamiya sharp pointed slim jaw side cutters.
I recommend them over the xuron 2175 shears for fine work as i use the xuron shears first to remove the part from the spur and then use the tamiya cutters to remove the gate from the part leaving very little to be sanded.
These tamiya side cutters are perfect for plastic scale models.
The edges are nice and sharp and actually cut the plastic instead of snapping plastic.
Customer questions answers.
I recently picked up a pair of the tamiya 74035 sharp pointed side cutters.
I would not recommend using it for anything else just because it could potentially ruin the sharp edge.
The sharp jaw blades offer an excellent cutting edge and they have a slightly slimmer jaw than previous tamiya plastic cutter products enabling easier removal of smaller parts which have less clearance.
Email me when available.
There is little to no sanding of nubs required after the cut due to the sharpness and the nice flat side.
Retail 44 00 save 20.
These are directly comparable to the cut on the mr hobby.
This cutter is extremely amazing.
