Engraving Blade Holder

Tamiya Engraving Blade Holder

The ergonomic handle for Tamiya engraving blades is a basic tool for restoring and highlighting panel lines and engraved details on plastic models. The body is made of lightweight, durable aluminum with a knurled grip section that ensures firm, precise guidance. The engraving blades themselves are not included in the package and are purchased separately according to the desired width.

Use

• Fit an engraving blade into the holder and hold it against the surface at a slight angle.
• Deepen the line gradually with light strokes toward you, until it is clean and clear.
• Ideal for restoring lines lost after sanding and filling, or for scribing new panel lines.
• The knurled grip allows a controlled stroke even for fine work.

Who it is for

Modelers who want to highlight panel lines and surface details and prepare a model for subsequent highlighting with a wash or panel-line accent will appreciate this tool. Suitable for more advanced modelers as well as beginners who want to raise the quality of the surface.

Work carefully — the blades are very sharp. Always scribe away from your body and keep the tool out of reach of children.
