The Tamiya Plastic/Soft Metal Side Cutter (74129) is a premium side cutter designed for cutting not just plastic sprues but also soft metals including brass rod and wire. The blades are hardened beyond the standard side cutter (74093) to handle these tougher materials without dulling quickly. An excellent tool for modellers who regularly work with brass wire, photo-etch frets, and metal detail parts alongside standard plastic kit work.
