Congratulations on developing grandpa toenails.

Happened to me a month ago. Fortunately, I had five more pairs of clippers.

My mother really sucked at gift-giving.

Or was she really good at preparing for the inevitable?

IIRC, there are some Japanese ones that are indestructable.

Seki Edge / Green Bell nail clippers from Japan are very well made and incredibly sharp. It's all I use now and have gifted them to others and received high remarks.

They do eventually get less sharp after years of use, but then I just move them to a secondary location like the car or desk drawer so I end up having a pair of clippers nearby at all times.

Those Japanese people must have pretty long nails if they're indestructible.

Oof, rip.

I have literally never seen this happen, I didn't know it was even possible.

All part of Gods plan to have you grow longer nails. Thoughts and prayers

Happened to mine a few years ago. Caused me to buy a new one that turned out to be a lot better. Infinitely sharper.

This just happened to mine, and I'd used it gor several years.
