When cutting small parts, it will not fly away. It will decrease the amount of time spent searching for the fly away parts. Usually, when I cut pieces out of the sprue, I leave a small nub that I can then cut off with an X-Acto knife.

With the God Hand, my process is this: All things considered, I must admit that you can hardly live with only one set of nippers. Many modelers have several. What I would suggest is to get at least a couple. Which ones is up to you. But if you ask me, go with something very nice, like Number 2 or Number 1 and combine it with one or two of the cheapest options. Number 5 is way up there just because some people could not get it that easily. Other than that it is in TOP 3. Please remember:
