Green Bell G-1008 Nail Clipper (Takumi No Waza)

The Green Bell G-1008 Nail Clipper is simply outstanding. The craftsmanship is second to none, with sharp, precise blades that cut through nails effortlessly without splitting or cracking. The ergonomic design feels comfortable in the hand, and the stainless steel finish is both durable and attractive. It even comes with a handy nail file that works like a charm. This clipper has elevated my grooming routine to a professional level. It’s more expensive than regular clippers, but the quality justifies the price. Highly recommend this for anyone who appreciates fine tools that last!

I wanted to wait a few years before writing a review of these nail clippers because most nail clippers seem like they are working well at first. These have definitely stood the test of time in my opinion. These nail clippers started out great and are great now. Sharp and smooth in operation, they easily clip through any of my nails. They may have ever so slightly dulled since their first use but the fact that I can't be certain has got to be a positive. They've never accidentally come apart. The built-in nail file works well. Should they ever cease to operate well I'll try to remember to update my review just to a give a sense of how long they've lasted.

I've spent decades struggling with checkout aisle nail clippers that often would not even clip my nails when forced with all of my might--often the nail would just bend rather than cut, and I would have to nibble away at it. I felt a little silly typing "best nail clippers" into my browser, and when multiple articles named this clipper as the best I felt even sillier spending $20 on it. But it was a wise decision, and the online articles were completely right. Almost all checkout aisle clippers are just stamped out pieces of metal. These Green Bell clippers are forged, machined, and sharpened like a quality surgical instrument. When you clip a nail, you literally have to just move the handle, there is virtually no effort involved. And the cut is super clean, no jagged edges. If I had any complaint, and it's very minor, it's a little clumsy to open the clipper because of the rounded edge of the handle. But this tool still gets my five star recommendation....

Several months ago I happened to read an article in one of the online news aggregators, entitled "I Found the Best Nail Clipper at the Airport in Japan" (the article can be found on The Strategist section of nymag dot com website and is dated June 22, 2016). That article led to my finding these nail clippers here on Amazon and my eventual purchase of two different sizes. To begin with, the nail clippers sold here on Amazon are in fact the real thing - the product and packaging is in Japanese as shown on this Amazon page, and the clippers are Made in Japan, Green Bell brand, of stainless steel. These are high quality personal grooming tools. I purchased both sizes: - large size: Green Bell Nail Clipper G-1008 (Takumi No Waza) this is model G-1008 - small size: Japanese Nail Clipper(S size) this is model G-1006 and appears to be identical to the Seki Edge model SS-106 The large size incorporates a nail file into the center part of the top piece. It's not immediately obvious that this is a file, but it is reasonably effective. The similar Seki Edge product includes a more traditional nail file on the bottom part of the top piece (see link below). My impression is that this large size is designed to appeal for the style of the clipper as much as the quality, and for that reason it has omitted the nail catcher and the different type of file. These products are part of the Seki Edge product line of beauty and grooming tools. They have a website in English that is comprehensive in describing the company, it's history and the products (sekiedge dot com). There is a similar large size nail clipper sold under the Seki Edge brand that also incorporates a nail catcher and may be a good choice as well: Seki Edge Satin Slim Clipper model SS-109 . Note that this model does have a larger nail file on the bottom part of the top piece. The quality of these nail clippers is apparent from when you first remove them from the packaging and hold in your hand. They are relatively heavy and perfectly finished. The quality of the cut is precise and clean. The cutting edges mate perfectly and cut without any jagged edges or imperfections. I am hopeful that these will be durable and last for a long time. The price is a bit higher than most other run-of-the-mill nail clippers, but not unreasonable for a high quality product. My only small criticism is that it would be nice if the packaging included a translation into English so that it would be possible to read what is said. I will be using these regularly and if longer term experience results in any further comments then I will return here and update my review.

Ottimo prodotto di grande qualità

Coupe ongle qui vaut largement son prix. Coupe simple et efficace.

Der Bellgreen Nagelknipser ist zwar deutlich teurer als herkömmliche Modelle, aber die Qualität rechtfertigt den Preis absolut. Die Verarbeitung ist erstklassig, und die Klingen schneiden die Nägel präzise, ohne zu quetschen oder zu splittern. Die Schärfe bleibt auch nach längerer Nutzung erhalten, was ihn besonders langlebig macht. Das minimalistische Design in Silber sieht edel aus, und das vernickelte Edelstahlmaterial sorgt für eine angenehme Haptik. Der Knipser liegt gut in der Hand, und die Hebelwirkung ist optimal, sodass auch dickere Nägel mühelos gekürzt werden können. Für viele mag ein Nagelknipser eine einfache Anschaffung sein, aber hier trifft die Redewendung "Wer billig kauft, kauft zweimal" wirklich zu. Im Gegensatz zu günstigeren Alternativen, die schnell stumpf werden oder brechen, ist dieser Knipser eine langfristige Investition in Qualität und Komfort. Insgesamt ein Premium-Produkt, das durch Schärfe, Haltbarkeit und präzises Schneiden überzeugt. Wer Wert auf hochwertige Pflegeprodukte legt, wird hier definitiv nicht enttäuscht.

One of my favourite nail clippers i have ever used, ever It has a nice chunky build, and isn't flimsy. Works well on fingernails and also toenails. It has kept it's sharpness months after purchase. Will definitely buy again if I happen to lose this one
