This nail nipper was made in Sanjō, Niigata Prefecture an area renowned throughout Japan for its high-quality metalworking. Made from the same high-carbon stainless steel used in Japan’s famously sharp kitchen knives, this item is both strong and rustproof. The nipper, which has a built-in spring mechanism, is made using a metal-casting process known as metal injection moulding. The lines of the handle are hand-polished, and designed to increase stability and ease-of-use. These nippers are said to be favoured by beauty professionals and medical clinics, as the alignment of their sharp blades provide a smooth, clean cut that doesn’t strain the nails. It has won the Good Design Award in 2020.
