Why it's good

• Handles the heavy cuts a thin sprue cutter can't
• Stainless steel stays sharp and resists corrosion
• Great for small cuts like arms, heads and weapons

Keep it alongside your plastic cutter and you've got the full range covered, from delicate sprue work to hacking apart a metal model for a conversion.

The heavy-duty cutter for metal and resin. Pairs with a plastic frame cutter for lighter work and a bottle of super glue for assembly.
