Good day everyone!

I’m in search for a highend yet affordable pair of nailclippers. My intentions are to carry it on my keychain so i’m looking for something with a reasonably low profile. I’d rather pay a little extra for it to last me along time instead of purchasing cheap one’s over and over again.

Any recommendations or experiences? I’d love to know!

Thanks in advance!

I’ve used the scissors on my SAK classic for years. Never liked the crushing cutting feel of traditional nail clippers

Yes, a Victorinox Classic SD is great for nail trimming. The scissors work great for trimming fingernails, it has a nail file, it carries well on a key chain, and it has the added utility of a small knife as a bonus. I recommend the Alox Classic SD because it's thinner and nicer looking. It comes anodized in a ton of different colors, but in my opinion, the plain old uncolored silver is best. It's very classy.

Suwada clippers are the best but also the most expensive.View attachment 1797975

Seki, made in Japan. Not for EDC of course, but great quality for an affordable price.
