If you’ve seen the new Seki Edge Premium Fingernail Clipper (SS-113) you might feel like you just had déjà vu. By the looks of it, it appears to be just like the Seki Edge Stainless Steel Nail Clipper (SS-112). And you would be right. The only difference is that it’s smaller.
Since the SS-112 has been wildly successful with its heavy build and strong cutting jaws, it only made sense to create a partner in crime….a Robin to Batman if you will. The Seki Edge Stainless Steel Nail Clipper rose to fame when Wirecutter (a product review website by The New York Times Company) wrote an article about the best nail clippers. It was #1. It’s important to note that the article references the Green Bell G-1008 as number one, but this nail clipper has the same design and is made by the same manufacturer as the SS-112. And let’s not forget to mention that #2 was the Seki Edge Fingernail Clipper (SS-106). So to occupy the first two spots for the top nail clippers by a reputable and widely recognized company is a huge feat and says a lot about the quality and reputation of these nail clippers.
But we digress…
If you compare the SS-112 and SS-113 side by side the Premium Fingernail Clipper is a nice size. Perfect for trimming smaller nails like fingernails or women’s nails, this nail clipper is just the right size for those looking for a smaller option.
The Seki Edge Stainless Steel Clipper (SS-112) is quite large and works great for toenails, large nails or men’s nails. With its wider jaw, it can cut through thicker and harder nails. But otherwise, the rest of the features are just the same! The Premium Fingernail Clipper has the built-in nail file on top, excellent weight and balance and features a proprietary grinding and honing method to make the cutting edge give a soft cut. It’s made of stainless steel, has an ergonomic handle and hand-crafted edges. Both the SS-112 and SS-113 are made in Japan.
The smaller size is also great for traveling or putting it in a purse or small pouch. It’s a great companion for anyone who needs to maintain their nails on the go. But it’s also nice to have both the SS-112 and SS-113 for different size and type of nails.
