To help improve my wind and water activities performance I need some good quality nail clippers.
I have a set that are marginal for my steel like toe nails that then need filing so as to to injure my wife in bed or rip the sheets.
Recommendations would be appreciated.

These are the ones you want dude- from woolworths $7, they trap all the clippings inside with the black plastic "cheeks" till you shake them out . Probably saved a couple relationships.
Ok photo wont load, they have select printed on the handle as in woolworths select brand.

As a Kiter, I'd have thought you'd get your nails trimmed at the beauticians when you get your mankini line waxed.

I got a set off these and they are pretty good, I ripped the little plastic bit off as it got in the way trying to cut through my chromium carbide toe nails.
I have snapped the little lever handle off a few pairs of clippers because even with the leverage my nail resists being sliced and diced... not with these el cheap puppies though, they have held up for threee months so far....
also if you get ingrown big toe nails on either foot your shoes are too narrow, and you are probably cutting your nails to short, this is what I did for years,,,,,, every few months I'd have to self operate and the corner off my big toenail would grow into the corner of the skin on my toe....
I bought wider shoes and all of a sudden it stopped happening,,,, what an idiot

You shouldn't have any trouble with your "Steel like" toe nails with one of these.

Don't slip. Loosing your toe and ending up in hospital would be embarrassing. Tell them your were trimming your toenails with an angle grinder after someone online told you it was a good idea.
