Cause mine actually already become not really sharp already after using for 1 year
Cap-ayam brand btw...

And always resulted in not having a clean cut from the runners

So might as well get a branded one and can tahan bit longer

Just buy any tamiya or bandai cutter la.... this type of tools no need to think over too much. Start building, less worry!

i remember i brought a cutter long time ago and build a MG strike freedom full burst mode...and the cutter is not that sharp anymore

Hard to find in my area only

Branded or unbranded cutter will also be bland sooner or later la....

The way I look at it, since you are supposed to cut on the big piece of the runner (not the thin one connected directly to the piece), it doesn't matter whether you're using expensive or cheap cutters, since it won't affect the actual piece itself. Some people make mistake when they use the cutter to actually cut the thin piece instead of the big one. Even the manual suggests that builder should cut on the big piece

use cheap Bandai cutter should do well
me myself still using cutter when I 1st time into gunpla like 4 years already
full with rusty part and the rubber grip kinda off but still working well

the only thing you need for maintenance is WD-40 for rusty part
thats it, cheap cutter can do well

I dont think buying expensive one can do better, its skill that all matter
beside that, cutter dont totally rid the nub marks, only cut the parts from runner nicely

used 2 cap ayam cutter before
then last hlj sale bought one mineshima brand one
and now i will never use cap ayam cutter (or nipper) anymore.

it really make your life a lot more easier esp. removing nub marks.

back to the question, i'd go for the g-temple one

Yea, but some big runner which stick very near with the pieces hardly can get a clean cut.

cut part left the nub about 1-2mm
clean/trim with hobby knife
done

not so hard to do it
and Bandai cheap cutter designed to cut such narrow part compared to hardware cutter

Hehe .. mine i think just too thick some how the cutter

So i always cut the whole tree down and use knife to trim.

Btw, i think we off-topic, later kenak scold =X

U-turn, U-turn

If the space is too tight, just cut the runner wherever you are able to No one said you definitely have to cut close to the pieces

Still trying to find the best way to keep the cutter.
Mine put in box with the lipas bola and the dry packet also karat faster then my friends...
Wonder if need to apply something or the weather reason..
