Tamiya Sharp Pointed Side Cutter

When you're removing tiny, delicate parts from a fret — the fiddly details on a ship model, fine aerials, small pipework — a chunky cutter just won't fit. Tamiya's Sharp Pointed Side Cutter has thin, pointed blades that get into tight, low-clearance spots and snip finer parts free cleanly. Hand-finished chrome-vanadium alloy keeps them keen.
