    OK, Ive had it. I'm tired of trying to squeeze my man fingers into the tiny holes of the standard over the counter (ladies apparently) nail/cuticle scissors. Uncomfortable as hell.

    After finding some nice tweezers aimed at men today, I thought "I cant be the only guy that gets annoyed by these things."

    So anyone know of a decent pair that DOESNT have tiny finger loops?

    This kind of tool is what I'm talking about.

    You said you are man, right? Why aren't you using your Dremel tool? :cool:
    Im not allowed to have spinny abrasive things that close to my digits. I almost removed the tip of my finger once with an angle grinder. Luckily I was wearing gloves and the leather absorbed most of the hit. I still lost a fair bit of skin.

    My niece last Christmas got me a men's grooming kit (must be trying to tell me something) I can't remember the brand but the logo looks like a guy with a beard. I'm pretty sure it was from Walmart. It has a pair of those in there that seem to fit my fingers. I wear LG size gloves. However if it doesn't come off with my teeth a pocket knife or soap it stays on my finger.

    Never heard of clipping nails with scissors… is that really a thing?

    I thought those scissors were for mustache/nose hair trimming.
    Ive used them for that too.

    And the scissors give you more control and allow you to shape if needed. Like if you are prone to ingrown toenails.

    Only being mildly sarcastic here... Have you tried the pet care aisle? Lots of dog nail sheers are actually not far off of what you're asking for.

    For the others, these are the finest nail clippers I've ever seen. Steel is about twice as thick as the drug store ones, high precision, low effort, just nail trimming monsters. I will not go back...

    I liked them so much everyone in the family got them for Christmas one year.

    Very good point!

    Leatherman has one described as a grooming tool. The Micra...

    Amazon product ASIN B000JCN0FG
    I have a buddy that swears by this scissors multi tool for his EDC. He keeps a couple of spares in case they quit making them.

    I won't carry a Leatherman without scissors or a file. Been carrying a Juice XE6 for 17 years now. Never leave home without it.

    I have rarely used the scissors in it for trimming my nails, but I've done it.

    BAAAH! They discontinued muh Juice!

    I recommend the Wave, particularly the new one with replaceable wire cutters(not for your nails though.... hopefully)
