Single-edged blade structure refers to a design in which one side of the blade is a cutting blade, and the other side is a cutting board blade.

When trying to slice and cut the 3mm runner, the blade will move freely and smoothly without any noise. Ultra-thin “cutting edge” is created one by one by a well experienced craftsmanship in Tsubame-Sanjo, Niigata prefecture, Japan. For people who paint plastic models, this is the best nipper to use because when they cut along the edge, it leaves no remains of the gate. It leaves with a clean cut section.
