Precise Model Work Using the Tamiya 74040

For finishing and detail work on RC kits, the Tamiya 74040 Modeler's Knife is a practical bench tool that emphasises accuracy. Its sharp edge and ergonomic shape make it easier to execute controlled cuts on small components.

Main Attributes of the Knife

The Tamiya 74040 Modeler's Knife offers a compact, precise cutting solution for model builders. Measuring 140mm in length with a 9mm diameter, it provides a steady grip for fine control. The blade thickness of 0.45mm helps deliver clean, accurate cuts through the plastics and light timbers commonly used in modelling.

Recommended Applications

Ideal tasks include trimming sprue remnants, refining balsa profiles and trimming decals for a neat finish on scale models. Its precision makes it useful to newcomers and experienced builders working on delicate assemblies.

Always cut on a suitable mat, keep your free hand away from the blade path, and store blades safely when not in use to prevent accidents.
It is best for standard modelling plastics and balsa. For harder or thicker plastics, use a tougher cutting tool to avoid damaging the blade or the part.
Keep spare blades in their original packaging or in a labelled container, away from moisture and out of reach of children.
