Is all the God hand been onesided nipper? Will it really help to reduce nub mark and sanding? I almost get it when I saw it in gamers arena last week but the price is rather high

i haven't used it. both sides are sharp, but only 1 side moves when you grab it.

people saying it does cleaner cuts, which means smoother cuts closer to the surface. minor sanding might still be required but saves more time.

stress mark usually done when the cutter "pulls" the plastic when cutting due to not sharp enough. so i'm guessing it will reduce stress marks too. but it's good on parts cannot be sanded like special coating parts.

if someone has exp would be good if can tell us the do's and don'ts as i read you can damage the godhand.

the one sided blade design actually works that is why China has been copying the design as well. Unfortunately, the price of Godhand before is acceptable but right now, even without mark up, it is really expensive.

I have bought mine 4 years ago and the price has increase at least 50% today. The design works in a way that it cuts very clean and there is little to no stress marks. The single blade design motion is similar to you cutting a plastic with hobby knife. Stress marks happen when the plastic is pulled when two blade is crushing the plastic (more so if the blade has been used for some time).

I rather spend that much (actually, a fraction of that) money on really sharp blades and quality filer.

For me the issue is less about the $$ and more about the time. I have limited time to build a kit due to kids and wife. So God Hand really save a lot of time.
My process now is : Cut far away at the runner using cheap plamo cutter -> cut flush against part using godhand -> minor sanding if needed (usually no need).
Build time become less and I can build my favorite kits even when only having 1 to 2 hrs a week to build.
Obviously if budget is an issue or time is not an issue then using the knife/sanding method also works.

Do's and don't on using Godhand. Never ever ever cut the runner using GH. You'll break the fragile blade of the nipper.
Also don't drop it and if possible keep it with the cover over the blade when not using. I dropped my first pair and the tip broke. sad.gif

If I get it in Tokyo, will it be somehow common to get it? This model looks nice, especially the shield
