One of the best items i have bought to help with the Victory build is a swann Morton no3 scapel.....
Then i bought 50 of the n011 blades and then 10 no9 chisel blade..
Very very sharp aswell.
The blades are a simple push n clip on and disposable.

Far superior to anything else and I throughly recommend them..

its been my choice of craft knife for as long as I can remember.

As I have got holder and my dexterity does not seem as good as it used to be I have been finding that the thinner no 3 handle does sometimes cause me grip problems so I recently picked up one of the swan Morton Comfort handles. Bit more to get a hold of but still takes the same blades.

I think they are much cheaper to use as well in terms of blades because I seem to remember I used to pay a "fortune" years ago for just a few x-acto blades.

Happy Modelling

You really cannot go wrong with them...
They are very sharp though and technique is required...
