Really more of a professional tool
This is a quality tool. It's well made, and does its job very well, but it definitely takes a little getting used to. There are several features that may be different from cuticle nippers you've used before.<br /><br />First, the cutting edges are curved so that the nipper closes and forms a very sharp point. This allows you to cut more accurately and deeply than with normal nippers. Second, you might notice the two handles are not identical. The handle on the right is shaped so that your hand won't slip when you are holding it in your right hand. (It should be noted that this makes it a little difficult to use while holding it in your left hand, which is why I say it's more of a professional tool. It seems like it's designed to use on someone else.) Third, this cutting edges are extremely SHARP. It cuts cuticles and thick skin quite easily, which is what it is meant to do, and ultimately one of the main reasons I feel this tool deserves 5 stars.
Rating: 5 stars
