Ultraflush Sprue Cutter

I bought these shears for the price. Well, I got what I paid for. There are some good points, they are sharp, and comfortable to use. The big problem with mine is the spring that keeps the jaws open wore out after two or three models. They still work, but without the spring to return the jaws open, it makes it hard on the old hand. I will be investing in a better pair.

Seems to cut pretty close on plastic sprues but less so on non-plastic, I.e. rubber kit tires,etc.; tends to leave stubs. Still, a quality choice but I would not use on photo-etched parts.

This is a great little tool for photo-etched parts.
