I was skeptical that these would add value vs a standard set of nippers. Unironcially, if you build plastic models - gundom, wargames, historical - get these. they cut things from the sprue so much more cleanly that it saves you several minitues of cleanup per part. The first sprue you trim with these you'll be like "whoa, I was screwing up not getting these sooner"As a word of warning: they're very fine. you can't use them for misc. pliers or on pewter models. You'll still want your regular set for certain large parts or the big, thick part of sprue.Basically these are a perfect tool for the specific task of trimming plastic model parts.If you do other things with them and use them as "general" snips on things like wire you will probably damage them - the blade is very fine.I attached a picture of a 28 mm infantry scale weapon (pretty small part), it's a 40k gun drone gun if you want to look it up for scale)The FRONT burr, on the barrel side, is from my OLD clippers. the back burr, the one you literally cannot see, is from this product.Get these, take care of them, sue them for what they're for and don't beat them up and you won't regret the spend.

I needed a new nippers for my modeling. I was quite surprised that this one cut very close without much sanding. It fits in my hand comfortably and the quality for the price impressed me. Good buy.

Agree with another reviewer. Economy is the way to go. Price is great and they are sharp and do a great job

Update: skip the “ordinary” and get the “basic”. It comes in new and different packaging and cuts smooth. Really good pair of affordable nippersOriginal review for ordinary model: I ordered 2 and both were defective. Both had scratches and dents even though they were supposed to be new. The first one had what looked like glue/ epoxy one one of the grips and near the hinge area. The second one had a dent in the blade. Will be ordering the “basic” model to see if it fairs better than the “ordinary” model

Worth every penny.

perfect

These this are super sharp and much smaller then I expected. I'd been using a pair of nippers I got from games and gear a few years ago and thought they were getting dull. They always had a big snap when they would cut through plastic but the cuts were smooth. I was looking at GodHand nippers and discover the type of nippers that are sharp on one side and flat on the other and wanted to give that type a try. While looking, I found these P.I.T. nippers and after comparing the reviews and price I bought these.These are much better then the other pair I was using, even when they were new. There have been a few larger pieces that were difficult to cut out due to how small these are but otherwise they are great.There is no "snap" then it cuts through plastic, it just slides through smooth like a knife through soft butter.Once off the spur, in most cases, you can clean up the extra bit with these snippers without needing a knife. By using this combined with my gunprimer raser I've been getting perfectly clean pieces with much less effort.

I got these to see if they would even be close to GodHand SPN-120 and if I could make do with them. They are fairly sharp but not as smooth as my 2-year-old God Hand 120. To be clear I have used my SPN-120s to buiId over 300 40k minis in the 2 years I have owned them and they still cut cleaner than these. I know they are half the price but just spend the money and get the God Hand nippers.
