Nail Clippers - USHION 15mm Wide Jaw Opening Stainless Steel Fingernail and Toenail Clippers Cutter for Thick Nails with Fingernail File for Men & Women Big

I play guitar so nail clipping is a bit of a regular chore. Some guitarists like to play with their nails but I like mine consistently nice and short so I have to clip my nails maybe two or three times per week. I have spent years trying to find a decent nail clipper and my house is like a nail clipper graveyard. I recently bought a full manicure set for half the price of this because it looked good but was extremely disappointed. This set just arrived half an hour ago and I had resisted the urge to trim my nails knowing they were coming. I was not disappointed. Sometimes you can just tell from the weight of something that it is quality and that is definitely the case here. The action is very smooth, unlike the jerkiness of the standard clipper mechanism so you have more control over pressure. The jaws open wide enough to get a finger in so that they are easy to clean - my others have got like the underneath of a fridge until I have taken time out for the fiddly process of cleaning them. I want to add that as a guitarist, getting my nails nice and short is like walking a precipice, you cut too close and it can be so painful that you can't play for a few days - or even worse, it leads to an infection. So, clipping as close as safely possible followed by some filing is my method but I have had as much difficulty finding a decent nail file. In the past, I have resorted to cutting up certain grades of abrasives from my belt sander and gluing them to a stick - so I would like to give an honorary mention to the nail file which came in this set. It wasn't the same as the one pictured which was an initial disappointment. It looked like the flimsy type I have tried before but it is actually very rigid and made light work of finishing my nails off. I think I might have happily paid the price of this set just for the file. Two final points, firstly, mine came in a tin with an additional velvet like bag. Secondly, there is a magnet at the end of one of the handles, the purpose of which escapes me. In conclusion, my search for the perfect nail clippers has reached its end. If James Dyson, Elon Musk, Steve Jobs and Leo Fender got together, they couldn't have designed a better nail clipper.

My conventional nail clippers were no use when I was trying to cut my big toe nails so I had a scout around and found these which are ideal. They are very well made, easy to grip and operate and are very sharp. They cut the tough hard nails on my big toes very easily and they even come with a small nail file which is quite rough and takes off any sharp edges so the nails dont snag my socks! One niggle however...they come in a small cloth bag which fits inside a small tin box which is also supplied but trying to fit them in is very fiddly so I ditched the box and just use the bag to store them. Other than that, this is a very good set of clippers and I would highly recommend them.

Loved these clippers. Sharp, easy to use. Sadly they've just broken. The spring clip just snapped. Worth the money. Will buy again.

We have a vizsla puppy who is now 4.5 months old. We trim his nails every week to (1) get him used to it and (2) help keep his pasterns (dog “wrists”) straight – when their nails are too long they start walking on the back of their paw pads to avoid discomfort, especially on hard floors, which then can impact how their pasterns develop. The breeder showed us how to clip his nails using regular human toenail clippers. That worked fantastic for a while, but the pup outgrew the nail clippers we had in the bathroom - his nails are now too thick, and our clippers don't open wide enough anymore. I’ve tried using special dog nail clippers but all the ones I tried were awkward to use compared to human toenail clippers, too large, and our puppy simply wouldn't let us do his nails with them, he kept trying to bite the clippers, and I kept freaking out that I'd cut too much of the nail off and end up with a bleeding pup. These Ushion 15mm wide clippers were a great find. Not only are they large enough for our pup’s nails (it looks like they’re going to stay large enough for a long while yet), they are also fabulously sharp. They go through the pup’s hard nails like butter, and not a squeak from him, either. I can do all his paws, including dewclaws, in one sitting and he naps through the entire procedure! I definitely recommend these clippers. They are easy to use, a bit larger than our old toenail clippers, which is great, they open wide, and are very sharp. Even better than I expected. The price reflects the quality, but a single nail clipping session at the groomer’s costs £8, so by using these clippers twice I’ve already saved money.

Should come with a health warning! Those jaws are razor sharp and wouldn't be out of place in an operating theatre. They come in a small tin inside a small box. Included with the tin and clippers is a rough nail file and a velvet pouch. The tin is tiny, 9cm x 6cm x 1.6 and just large enough to accommodate the clippers in their collapsed position - the spring between the two arms is flipped for storage. But you didn't come here to read that. These clippers went through my big toe nails with ease. Is this due to the razor sharp cutting edge or their pincer/plier heritage? I suspect its a combination of the two. And this was on hard, dry nails. I used to have to soak my feet in hot water for an hour, even then my old clippers would flex and require much effort before my talons succumbed. With these, the process was just so easy. ASIDE FROM THE LETHAL JAWS, the ONLY drawback, for me, was their size, 8.5cm long. I think I would've liked longer, larger handles for a better grip rather than relying on finger and thumb only.

This product is a lot more easier to use than the last pair I had. They open wide so there is none of this trying to slide your nails into the gap. They are sturdy and very well made. The spring spins around and is held in place with a magnet when not in use. Oh and they are nice and sharp and the big handle helps control them better as I have quiet big hands and find normal ones quiet fiddly.. The only issue I had was because I am not used to the wide open jaws I did cut a couple nails rather close to the nail bed. They came with nail file which is handy to take the edge of the nails after clipping them. Very pleased with the product looks like it will last for a long time.

Good nail clippers. Much better than the little ones everyone has. Would recommend
