Clippers

[beenn]

I am trying to make a keychain kit, not really 'bushcraft' but ive got a firesteel, bottle opener, can opener, screw driver, Philips screw driver and uncle bills silver grippers.

I was just wondering if anyone has used these:

Not because i like to do my nails but because i hate dirty nails that are too long and for me biting nails is not an option!

look complicated for what they are but nifty

I would just use a normal pair of clippers you can put those on a keyring

Normal clippers always fall apart with me, The bit with the notch always comes off which is no problem at home but if it happened outside id loose it

Get a decent pair mate worth the extra pennys

Had you thought of a small SAK I have a midnite Manager that has:bottle opener,.phlips screwdriver,flat screwdriver.nail file,small scissors(can just do nails), small blade, pen and (useless torch).
Couple this with a Fenix E05 and a spy capsule holding £20 and a Ibruprofen and it covers most bases as they say on Every Day Carry (google it for a bit of gadget porn........

I have a few SAK's but with my job im sometimes around children and dont really feel comfortable with a blade. Also i only use SAK's for camps and they are normally kept in my rucksack until needed to open a can.

I prefer to use a nail clippers over a scissors as it works better for me, i know it sounds stupid but when i use scissors i always rip the nail which bleeds and can get infected and is rather annoying and painful

Wow seems a bit pricey to me for a pair of nail clippers! Try Wilkinsons, only 54p there!

Ive just got some of these:

They feel a bit flimsy but did the job really well and for £2.99 you cant go wrong! I got them because like you I cant stand long dirty nails and these are perfect for keeping on a keyring and I think look nicer than the ones you found, have a look you wont be disappointed!
