Probably one of the best made
Seki City, Japan has been known for high quality knives since at least the 1980s, the successor to Solingen and Sheffield. I have several. So it's no surprise that these are outstanding. As for the "samurai" thing, the best katana blades were made in Bizen, a region just to the west, but I can't blame KAI for marketing :) They of course have nothing to do with tamehagane steel used for sword blades. I had just done my nails prior to receiving it, but clipped a bit of thumbnail to test them. As described in other reviews, it cuts cleanly without snapping off a piece, and it doesn't fly across the room. Very sharp. They are larger than most fingernail clippers, but this is a huge plus in my book. Using my left hand to clip the nails of my right is a huge pain with little clippers, as I'm right-handed; and sorry to say my left hand is pretty inept. These have the sharpness, purchase, and leverage to make it a breeze. My nails are thick, I've often used toenail clippers for them. Don't know how some people find it "too bulky to use", it's great. Requires very little force. I also like the gentle curvature of the blades. So many clippers seem to have extreme concave edges that are fine for a pinky nail, but way too curved for a man's thumbnail. These are just right. The nail file slot thing is okay, but I'll never use it. Have German sapphire files for filing. Could be used in a pinch. In short, highly recommend. If your toenails aren't thick you could likely use these for those too. Especially for the price paid, these are excellent. Very good steel.

Premium Japanese Quality - Best Nail Clippers!
These KAI Japanese nail clippers are exceptional! The stainless steel construction is premium quality and made in Japan craftsmanship really shows. They cut cleanly and precisely with no splitting or tearing. The side nail file is a great bonus feature. Sharp, durable, and ergonomic design. Best nail clippers I've ever used. Worth every penny!

Solid construction, sharp, but bulky
These clippers go through thick nails like butter. It's actually kinda scary how sharp they are. The removable clipping catcher is convenient and makes trimming nails a less messy affair. The steel feels nice and high quality. It's totally silent from start to finish. My only gripe is that it's so bulky with and without the tray that it's hard to clip nail edges or unorthodox shapes. Either way, there's enough positives that I'm willing to deal with it

My Favorite Nail Clipeprs
These are the best nail clippers I've ever used. The steel is high quality, the nail vile works well, and the silicone housing prevents your clippings from flying across the room. I have yet to have an issue with this pair of clippers. I pre-emptively bought a pair for my wife so mine wouldn't disappear, and she feels the same way. I really never thought I would be writing a review on nail clippers, but they are that good.

Nice quality and design but...
Aesthetically these look very nice and high quality, but unfortunately they don't cut smooth and left jagged edges that snag on every nail I cut. I bought a pair of $8 clippers and they somehow better in the clipping

Super sharp nail clippers
Extremely sharp nail clippers that dont crush but actually cut through thick nails. It has a slight curve but isn't a flat cut. My other nail clippers didnt require my nails to be filed down after cutting but this one does need it. Just wish they had a pick included to go on the sides of the nail to scrape out lint and dead skin.

Nail clippers are really sharp! The nail file on the side helps to file it into a perfect round shape, however the file can get clogged up with your nail so handy to have a small brush to brush away excess

When I heard about Japanese nail clippers, I thought, “Another thing the Japanese do better?” and wondered if it was just advertising. Well, I love these nail clippers, and I’ll never go back to using others. They’re really sharp and very effective.

These blades are sharp, and cuts clean, only require a mild sanding with the included nail file on the side. The cut nails fall nicely in the catchment area for easy removal. These might be a bit unwieldly for those with tiny fingers though. (W26 x L90 x 18 mm)

1本持っているのですが職場で使うためにもう1本購入。 個人的にはこの爪切りが一番きれいに切れます。とにかく切るときの衝撃が小さい。水泳の飛び込みが上手な人は水しぶきが少ないですが、これもそんなイメージで、切った時の衝撃が小さくて爪へのダメージが小さいような気がします。切った爪のかけらも飛び散りにくいです。側面についているヤスリも結構優秀で良く削れます。 ただし足の指については刃の形状がマッチしないのでちょっと切りにくいです。
