Detailed Scribing Tool for Scale Modelling

Model makers seeking precise detailing can use the Tamiya 74145 Fine Engraving Blade to produce sharp panel lines and subtle surface work. The tungsten carbide tip provides durability and a steady finish for repeated use.

Blade Dimensions and Holder Compatibility

The 0.15mm blade is one option in a set of thicknesses tailored to different modelling needs. It has a total length of 25mm and a 2mm shank diameter. It is intended for the Tamiya holder (Item 74139) but also fits the Fine Pin Vise D (Item 74050) and D-R (Item 74112).

Recommended Scribing Technique

To achieve clean grooves, hold the blade at about 45 to 60 degrees and pull it gently along the panel. Use several light passes rather than a single heavy stroke to avoid slipping or rough edges.

Storage Case and Identification Details

Blades are supplied in a practical carrying case that holds up to ten pieces for safe storage. The shank includes a colour coded band to make it simple to identify blade thickness at a glance.

It can score paint, so test on a scrap area first and use light passes if you intend to scribe over a painted finish.
Yes, controlled scribing can create chipped paint or fine scratches as part of weathering, but practice on test pieces to refine the effect.
Keep them in the supplied case and store in a dry place to avoid knocks and to preserve the edge between uses.
