Many of us use nail clippers regularly, but have you ever noticed the small round hole near the end of the handle? While it may seem decorative or insignificant, this tiny feature actually serves some practical and surprising purposes. Here’s what you need to know:
1. Attaching to a Keychain
The most obvious and common use for the small hole is to attach your nail clipper to a keychain, lanyard, or travel kit. This makes it:
- Convenient for on-the-go grooming.
- Easy to store and keep track of, preventing loss.
How to Use It:
- Insert a small keyring or clip through the hole and attach it to your keys or travel pouch.
2. Cleaning Under the Nails
The hole's edges can function as a mini tool for cleaning beneath your nails. Its shape allows for gentle scraping without damaging the skin.
How to Use It:
- Use the edge of the hole to remove dirt or debris from under your nails.
3. Enhancing Grip While Trimming
The hole provides a place to insert your fingertip or a small tool for better grip and control while trimming your nails. This is especially useful for those with limited dexterity or strength in their hands.
4. Using as a Mini Screwdriver
In some cases, the hole's small, round shape can double as an emergency mini screwdriver for tightening small screws, such as those on eyeglasses or electronics.
