GodHand - LTN-120 Lightning Nipper (w/ Protection Cap) [In-Store Only]

Important Notice – In-Store Only

GodHand has requested that the GH-LTN-120 Lightning Nipper not be sold online. This product is available exclusively for in-store purchase. Sales are limited to experienced modelers familiar with single-edged nippers (such as the SPN-120), as improper use may cause damage. This tool is intended for precision second cuts only (to remove the remaining sprue after an initial cut), and should not be used on clear parts or materials other than plastic (e.g. wire, resin, or metal). Due to its delicate nature and limited supply, no support or replacements will be offered for damage or misuse.

The Lightning Nipper is a specialized nipper for plastic model gate cuts, designed with an ultra-ultra-thin single-edge blade for superior sharpness and precision. It cuts gates with an incredibly light touch, producing virtually silent slices and smooth cut surfaces that minimize whitening. Ideal for builders who want a clean finish without painting.

• Ultra-thin single-edge blade design provides knife-like sharpness

• Created by skilled craftsmen in Tsubame-Sanjo, Niigata, Japan

• Minimal post-processing required—ideal for unpainted builds

• Prevents parts from flying when cut

Material Compatibility

• Designed only for cutting PS, PP, ABS, and PE plastic gates up to 1.5mm

• Not for use with transparent/hard plastics, resin, metal, or photo-etched parts

Usage Notes

• Do not use excessive force—light pressure is sufficient

• Cut using the center of the blade, not the tip

• Do not twist the blade while cutting

• Avoid cutting anything thicker or harder than recommended

• Regularly clean off plastic shavings to prevent wear

• Apply oil to moving parts to maintain smooth operation

• Handle with care—blade is extremely sharp

• Always wear protective eyewear and use included blade cap when not in use

This is a precision tool—treat it gently and use it correctly to maintain its exceptional cutting performance.
