Mini Hand Saw Model Tools Modelling Knife Hobby DIY Craft Razor Saw Hacksaw Tool Kit with 9 Pieces Craft Blades for Plastic Models Tight Spaces Precise Cuts

I purchased this product (MANWAH) for building a model boat (1/32 scale) for which it worked great. The blades are nicely sharp and the variety of blades allows for sawing different widths and thicknesses of the wood. The ergonomics of the handle are very good. One needs to tighten the brass knob with a pair of pliers however. If you only hand tighten it, the blade will come loose while sawing. My other comment is that the blades are quite thin (can be a good thing) but very flexible. One cannot saw too fast or with too much pressure on them else they will bend or break. As for using it to prune tree branches or limbs, I'd suggest your trees be 1/24 scale or smaller too!

This item has opened up a whole new level of hobbying for me. I covert/paint a lot of plastic miniatures and the ability to saw pieces apart instead of clipping them with clippers is a game changer. The cuts are precise and I have not damaged any parts during the process. It has improved my ability to make conversions of my miniatures. The blades are a little flimsy so I would recommended starting your cuts with caution but once the cutting starts the blades hold up well. Highly recommend!

The saw set was packaged very neatly and when done using it can be repackaged in the same manner. The saw blades are thin in thickness and have a tendency to bend. To overcome this, patience is the key by reducing the cutting pressure and to reduce the cutting speed. The saw blades are sharp and worked well when cutting plastics or molded epoxies. The tool is compact in size, the saw blades can be seated easily within the handle, and the handle, although plastic, is comfortable to use.

Well just got this new saw kit to replace my big saw that you see in one of the pictures . When I found this I was so excited that I found a small saw for my precise cuts . Well turns out it was a money grab for who ever made this . I just opened this and have only been using it for 2 minutes .and you can see the blade has bent in seconds . The handle I thought would be great but for some reason I could not get the blade to stay in . So I go to the instructions on the back of the package because that is all there is for this . I followed the pictures because most of it is just in Chinese language. And the blade just falls out after I screwed it on and tried several times . So I try the other line (the way it is not supposed to go) and with a lot of patience I was able to get the blade in and it is not supported kon either side so you really have to reef on it to get it stiff enough to not move . Ok now that the blade is functional . I tried to use it to cut down the grain making it an easy test to see how it works . Unfortunately I was let down again . The blade started to cut but the it is so thin and flimsy that the blade instantly starts to bend and I can't even cut anything with it . You really have to work hard on keeping the blade straight so you can cut with it . I paid about 10 dollars for this and I am feeling very foolish to have been had . This tool is affective I am guessing with very very small and soft wood pieces of wood . I really don't even think it's safe to cut paper . It is sharp enough but it will not stay straight unless you are concentrating and put little to no pressure on it . The blades are flimsy and will bend even when you are barely using it. Very bummed folks . If you mind a challenge to prove me wrong then please show me. I am an artist who relies on my tools and this one let me down .

It worked for carving a pumpkin but pretty flimsy blades.

Not exactly what I had hoped for but worked. Blade won’t fit into protection device well and has to be disassembled to work. Assembly and disassembly is easy so not a problem. Overall ok product for plastic model building.

I use this tool to cut away and customize plastic scale madels. I cut out doors on a plastic car toy to test this product. I discovered that I need to watch how-to videos on cutting out parts. After this I was very comfortable using this tool. The blades are thin and flimsy by design. When cutting, use light pressure and take your time to keep the cut straight. I do recommend this for plastic scale model enthusiasts.

This product was disappointing and didn't fully live up to its billing. As other reviewers have noted, the handle doesn't allow for a snug fit for most of the saw blades and is largely useless. The blades are also quite thin (except for one of them). However, if you use an Exacto handle, you can make these saw blades work. Just work carefully and make sure you're not using them for heave-duty applications. All-in-all, not a complete waste of money, but not exactly money well spent, either.
