Nail Nippers

SUWADA Japanese nail nippers are open-jaw cutting tools for the nail plate. Unlike traditional lever-style nail clippers, a nail nipper uses two handles and opposed cutting edges, giving a clear view of the cutting head and allowing progressive, controlled cuts.

SUWADA manufactures nail nippers in Japan, with model-specific differences in size, blade geometry, handle design, finish and manufacturing method. Check each product page for exact specifications rather than assuming every nipper has the same process or capacity.
