AK9013 gathers the basic hand tools needed for precise preparation and assembly into one four-piece starter kit. It suits newcomers establishing a first workbench as well as experienced modellers who want the same core functions together: holding small components, cutting parts, cleaning edges and filing surfaces. Everything is supplied in a clear blister case.
Straight tweezers and orange-handled cutting pliers are included.
The cutter comes with replacement blades and a safety cap.
A metal file completes the four-tool selection.

Notes · Q & A
Sprue cutters or a hobby knife — what do I actually need?+
Cutters remove parts from the sprue cleanly; the knife trims the leftover nub and mould lines. You'll want both — they do different jobs.
What's the difference between single-blade and double-blade cutters?+
Single-blade cutters shear against a flat anvil for an ultra-clean cut with less stress on the plastic; double-blade cutters are tougher for general work.
How do I keep tools in good condition?+
Cut plastic only (never metal sprues or wire) with precision cutters, replace knife blades often, and keep files clear with a brass brush.
