GodHand Ultimate Nipper (Old Model) GH-SPN-120

Really cuts through plastic like butter. I was told go big or go home with these. Glad I made this purchase.

I do not know what these are made of, and I fear the sanity-shredding truth that would tear me apart. They cut through GW plastic like butter in a way that leaves me in shock. I always asked, "how do you get rid of the nubs after you cut plastic?" to people online, and they were just like, "lol, idk what do you mean, sounds like your nippers are old." I would get new nippers, only to find they didn't improve my situation all that much. Clipping was still difficult and often left stress-marks on the plastic. I bit the bullet, bought a new, shiny pair of clippers (these), and I audibly gasped the first time I snipped some sprue. They sliced through like butter, leaving the miniatures unstressed. This is what I've been missing. I have no idea how long they'll last - I'm writing this review 15 minutes after first using them. That being said, they left enough of an impression on me that I felt the need to leave this review, so let that speak for itself.

The GodHand SPN-120 Ultimate Nipper 5.0 is the very best nipper for building plastic models. It is superior to the Tamiya, Volks, and Xuron nippers that I have used in the past. It leaves very little stress marks on pieces when cutting. I have used mine for about a dozen Master Grade Gundam kits, and it is still sharp and in top shape (I use oil to lubricate the nipper and prevent it from rusting). The only problem is that it is expensive. It is about 3500 JPY (~30 USD) in Japan, so expect to pay about double or more than double if you're in another country. I think the Tamiya Sharp Pointed Side Cutter is superior when it comes to value for money, since the Tamiya can be found for 30 USD in the United States. However, the Tamiya also stresses plastic significantly more than the GodHand nippers, so some people (myself included) would spend a little more for the GodHand nippers. Once you buy this nipper, you will never go back to using any other. The performance is unmatched.

Not the sellers fault, but one of the nipper blades was not level with the other.....I get uneven cuts and have lots of cleanup after every cut since I'm unable to cut even relatively close to flush with the plastic. I didn't notice the cause for about a month. Must have missed a quality inspection. That being said this is my second pair...normally this is a hands down 5 star product. Edit: Broken snipping warhammer sprue plastic....I advise buying these from a more reputable dealer and then checking it right out of the package. Black spot on the blade snapped one of the heads in half. Now I cant even just cut things off the sprue.

Never thought I'd spend $70 on a pair of nippers, but here we are. And the amount of sanding this thing has saved me from is crazy. For my first two Gundam kits I was using a $10 set and I would cut 1/8" from the piece and then trim with a hobby knife and then sand for HOURS I'm not entering competitions so I don't need microscopic perfection, so with these nippers, I can cut FLUSH to the piece and some parts need some cleaning up, but most parts don't need to be sanded at all. I'm getting my third piece cut and assembled so much more quickly?

Well these nippers deliver super clean cuts. I was using some other $10 amazon clippers and I was spending so much time with clean up. Every piece I clipped with the other nippers required clean up, Now these have just saved me so much time. They are expensive definitely. But the amount of time these will save me will more than make up for the added price. Cut GW sprue plastic like a dream.

The best nippers you'll ever buy. No stress marks from these babies.

Ordered: October 6, 2019 Delivered Oct 10, 2019 Snapped: January 31, 2020 Great for for soft resin/plastic models. Cuts soft metal figures for trimming. Takes damage over time and I don't recommend for any cutting other than detailing. I chopped up twigs and plastic scrap. I will not purchase again as durability in not high. This 'nipper' is meant for 'nipping' and fine detailing.

切れ味 最高

A little bit more money than most clippers but worth it for huge increase in quality.

My husband makes miniatures, and had been talking about this product in a wishful way. I paid attention to his musings, and gave it to him for Christmas. He was over the moon, and thanks me every time he uses it.

非常に精巧に作られた工具なので取り扱いには注意と多少の慣れが必要です 価格のこともあり、上中級者向け商品だと思います。取り扱いを間違うと、切れにくくなったり、曲がったり刃先が折れます そのような工具なので、性能を維持するためには適度なメンテナンスが必要です（ゴッドハンド社から専用メンテナンスキットあり） 軽い力で部品を切り取ることが出来ます、ゲートをぎりぎりまで追い込んで切れるのであとが残りにくいです（通常ニッパー比） 各社同様の薄刃ニッパーなどが販売されていますので、好みもあるかもしれませんが「お勧め！！」です
