We use it almost mechanically to trim our nails, but have you ever thought that this little everyday object could help you in many situations? The nail clipper, thanks to its sharpened blade and its precise grip, can perform unexpected tasks. Whether it’s to cut, clean or even fix, here are some tips that might surprise you.
When the nail cutter replaces the scissors
Are you looking for a precise tool for a clean and fast cut? The nail clipper may prove to be a practical alternative.
Cut the wires and ribbons
When a thread protrudes on a garment or a ribbon has to be fitted, the nail clipper becomes a discreet but effective ally. Its small blade allows a clean cut, ideal for sewing or emergency do-it-yourself.
Open cardboard packaging
Faced with a packaging that is difficult to open? Instead of looking for scissors, use the nail clipper to make a notch in the carton. A precise gesture that makes it easier to open up.
Cut labels and small plastics
Clothing labels or plastic packaging films are sometimes annoying to remove. A little nail cutter, and the trick is done, without the risk of damaging the fabric or the wrapped object.
A precision tool for small repairs
The navy clip is not just a manicure accessory, it can also be used as a troubleshooting tool.
Cut cables and thin wires
A protruding headphone thread? A slightly damaged charging cable? If the material is thin, the nail clipper allows a precise cut, limiting the frayed wires.
Adjusting cracked nails
A broken nail can quickly become troublesome and painful. Rather than awfully tearing it up, a little bit of a well-placed nail clipper prevents it from clinging and getting worse.
Cut out pieces of fabric or leather
In seam or leather goods, the small cuts may be delicate. The nail clip makes it possible to refine the edges of a fabric or fine leather with precision.
