Fine sprue trimming for scale model builders

The Tamiya 74123 Fine Point Thin Blade Nipper is built for model hobbyists who need neat, accurate cuts when separating plastic parts from sprues. Its narrow jaw design helps reduce stress on small components, giving cleaner seams and less cleanup before assembly.

Slim jaw geometry for delicate work

At about 115mm overall length, this nipper offers a balanced grip and good control for tight spots. The thin cutting edges are hardened for repeated use and let you get close to the gate without crushing the part.

Comfortable grip and authentic Tamiya markings

PVC-covered handles improve hold and reduce slippage during detailed trimming. The tool is finished with Tamiya's twin star mark and the "TAMIYA CRAFT TOOLS FOR PLASTIC" label, showing it is purpose-made for plastic model tasks.

Use a steady hand and small, controlled cuts; the thin blade lets you trim close to the gate but take off small amounts to avoid marring the plastic.
It works best on standard polystyrene sprues used in most kits. For very soft or very brittle resins test on a scrap piece first to avoid cracking or crushing.
Wipe blades clean of plastic residue after use and store the nipper closed. If alignment shifts, a light tune at the pivot screw by an experienced user can help.
