      Best cutter I ever owned

      A little pricey for cutters but worth it. Cuts cleanly as long as it is used properly.

      Really good but...

      It's really good! But... it can still leave stress marks if you go too fast and you still need to be careful handling it to avoid breaking the blade. The steel quality is better than DSPIAE which broke on me (but that's because I used it like a double bladed nipper and on harder plastic runners) but the blade is still really thin so can break if you are not careful. It's recommended to use double bladed nippers first and use this Godhand to clean up but even then it can still leave small nubs that need sanding. Although unlike DSPIAE's nipper, I think this can handle being used as your standard nipper as long as you go slowly and don't let the blades slam into each other too hard frequently. Is it worth the price? I personally think so because I like the feeling I get from each cut and it doesn't get stuck like the DSPIAE does when cutting the 2mm parts of the nipper. But since you still have to treat this nipper carefully and still sand down nubs, some might feel like the DSPIAE is better to save the $35. After all, with that money you can get yourself another HG or RG kit.

      Total Game Changer

      This thing cuts through plastic like a hot knife through butter, and I’m not even exaggerating. Snips incur almost no resistance, and while it’s not a total substitute for glass files and sandpaper, the nub marks left are minimal. Are there good options at cheaper prices? Probably; I haven’t tried any. But if you don’t mind the extra money, you can’t go wrong with these.

      God tier? Yes. Worth it? Maybe.

      These are the most hyped up nippers for a valid reason, they definitely are the best I've personally used thus far. The difference between them and any other decent single edge nippers isn't like outrageous or anything, but it is probably justifiable as a $20 difference. They do get closer than literally anything else, and I save a toonnnn of time filing by using these for the finishing cuts. They've made my hobby knife essentially obsolete. So I'd say: If you've already got some single edges that work well, you probably don't necessarily need these. If you don't have any single edges, you do need some, and these are the best ones to get no question.

      However... a note to GodHand: if you're going to make nippers that cost $60 and NOT make them properly calibrated out of the box, you should at least include a cheapy set of the tools necessary to adjust the grub screw. I just about tore my brand new shiny nips up trying to get the locking nut off with a random pair of pliers. And even though I got away without doing any significant damage, it was still quite frustrating to fight with for what was effectively an extra 20min waiting period before I could actually use my brand spanking new top tier nippers. That's the only gripe I've got though. I do still absolutely love them.
