I bought this one by Squadron years ago. Just have to get off my keester and use it more as it works very well when I do use it

I enjoyed to use this one for more than 15 years but impossible to find one in France to replace it, so I bought a Radu Brinzan one and I enjoy to use it too

The blades for the Tamiya scriber are made by Olfa by the way in case you didn't know it.

Similar, with the needle being replaced by a compass point, which can easily be re-sharpened.

While I sometimes use knives and pins, I find them to be less than ideal because they tend to displace plastic rather than remove it so that every groove results in ridges on both sides. Where I can, I use these extremely fine PE saws. They remove material and leave a very fine groove.

Forgot about this wee beastie. Like Andy's, its more of a saw and it works great. I just used it on my tip tanks.

​

One has to fold the blade into shape and then fit it in the handle, not included. I think several sizes of blades came in the set.

1. When did I get it.....I dunno
2. Who makes it.....I dunno
3. Where's the rest of the set.....I dunno
4. What's it for....Ha ha...I believe it was advertised as a tool to remove parts from sprue trees who's attachment points are larger than the part itself
5. Why did I get it....it was shiny

I have this one. Just another option to confuse the issue further:
