Accurate trimming for precision modelling

The Tamiya 74123 Fine Point Thin Blade Nipper is designed to help modellers achieve neat separations of plastic parts from their sprues. Its narrow cutting profile assists in preserving small details and reducing cleanup time.

Design features that aid fine work

The tool's 115mm length gives a compact, controllable feel for fiddly joins and tight areas. The thin, sharp jaws are made to slice through sprue gates without crushing adjacent features.

Secure grips and authentic tool markings

PVC-sleeved handles provide a non-slip hold for steady trimming. The nipper carries Tamiya's twin star motif and the "TAMIYA CRAFT TOOLS FOR PLASTIC" printing, underlining its role as a specialist modelling tool.

Yes, but take care: cut a small margin and finish the edge with a fine scraper or polishing stick to avoid scratching the clear surface.
Keep blades clean of melted plastic and store dry. Occasional professional sharpening is an option, though these nippers are built for long service with routine care.
It is suitable for many scales, but for very large, heavy gates a larger nipper may be more efficient. This thin blade excels on small to medium gates.
Wipe blades after use, avoid cutting metal or hardened materials, and check the pivot for tightness to keep action smooth.
