God Hand PN-120 single-edged nippers

Product Information

We're not just making that up - Pete, James and Foxx have sworn by them for years and we are ridiculously excited to be able to bring them to you now.

Because this nipper is so special, GodHand has a whole page here with instructions on how to handle it. E-Gift cards are the perfect solution when you just can’t find the right gift or you’re short of time. GodHand Tools is a Japanese company that specializes in producing high-quality precision tools for hobbyists and professionals. In the last few years we’ve seen the rise of single-bladed nippers, which cut through the plastic from one side, the other blade acting as an anvil against which the plastic is supported. If you enjoy building model airplanes, Gunpla models, or Warhammer models, these nippers will make the hobby cleaner, faster, and more enjoyable.Additionally due to the very small amount of material left on the parts you can often skip using your hobby knife altogether and just move onto sanding. You can use the nipper to cut the piece from the thick runner, however, I consider it more senseful to do this step with your standard diagonal cutter like my cheap Lux pliers. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.

The second cut is as close to the part as possible, in this instance a curved edge of a propeller, leaving a pair of spurs that could be cut away again (and were), or sanded back. GodHand Ultimate Nipper is a nipper that specialises in gate cutting in pursuit of the "ultimate cut".Manufactured by Kobe Steel Works, they feature a set screw, quality spring, and an iconic leather sleeve.

But the God Hand is so sharp and narrow that it can get right up against the part, allowing me to skip the knife step. The Ultimate Nipper's amazing sharpness is achieved by the thinly sharpened "cutting edge" and the "single-edge structure" for a cleaner cut. To see just how small, here’s the God Hand next to my second slimmest pair, my Gundam Planet premium side cutters.Ultimate Nipper is a single-blade nipper dedicated to plastics, which specializes in gate cutting and pursues the "ultimate cut. Keep in mind to check if the grub screw is perfectly in place before locking it completely with a flat plier. My overall impression after using these nippers is similar to the impression I got after using Tamiya's sharp pointed side cutters. They’re not a cheap option because the mechanism must be precision manufactured, and the blade tempered to be strong enough to carry out the task required of it.

When it comes to clear styrene, which is traditionally more brittle than regular styrene, you are advised to cut only the gates, avoid cutting any larger runners, and avoid cutting any brittle plastics at all, as they’re likely to shatter explosively and damage the blade with any sideways momentum. With Kenbu and Gai, Amō has the opportunity to change the course of history for both himself and the entire nation of Japan.Their special design allows them to avoid creating the white, stressed plastic and burrs that are common when removing injection molded parts from their frames. We don’t share your credit card details with third-party sellers, and we don’t sell your information to others. Although they're on the spenny side as far as tools go, they do live up to the hype and are worth the money. at least is somewhat universal and likely the maximum thickness of plastic you should cut with this nipper. For people who paint plastic models, this is the best nipper to use because when they cut along the edge, it leaves no remains of the gate.
