I have to admit, this is my first experience with a high quality nail clipper. And what a huge difference, compared to the drugstore version I have been using all my life. The blades are very sharp, giving you a nice, precise cut. The product is stainless steel, so it should last a long time (and I am talking years, here). The clippers themselves are very light in weight, and slim in design. The leather case is perfect for putting the tool away, and the fit is tight, which is good, as leather stretches over time. I don't foresee the clippers falling out of the case in the future.
