Serious scale modelers, this Tamiya engraving blade is a secret weapon for adding crisp, realistic panel lines to your aircraft, cars, or Gundam kits. The blade is an incredibly fine 0.1mm thick, made from high-quality, precisely polished carbide (an ultra-fine alloy) for sharpness and durability. It fits into a standard hobby knife handle with a 2mm shaft.
Why scribe? Factory panel lines can be shallow or uneven. Using this blade with a scribing guide or template, you can re-deepen existing lines or add entirely new ones for more detail and depth before painting. It gives your model that professional, high-definition look.
The blade is 25mm long. Use it carefully with a light touch – let the sharpness do the work. It's not a saw; you're scoring the plastic multiple times to create a clean groove. Perfect for rescribing lines lost during sanding or customizing kits. A must-have tool for anyone taking their modeling to the next level. Note: Not for kids under 14 due to the sharp blade.
