    Really good nailclippers:

    https://www.victorinox.com/en-US/Products/Swiss-Army-Knives/Personal-Care/Nail-Clipper/p/8.2050.B1

    If you’re willing to go over the $20 barrier, you get more functionality:

    https://www.victorinox.com/en-US/Products/Swiss-Army-Knives/Small-Pocket-Knives/Nail-Clip-580/p/0.6463

    I liked it enough, I bought two more.

    Smallest MagLite:

      I have a pair of these safety 1st nail clippers:

      https://safety1st.com/en-ca/products/fold-up-nail-clippers-10435

      They’re meant for babies, and I think my parents got them when I was a baby, but to this day they are still sharper and easier to use than any other pair I’ve bought or used.

      It’s hilarious that they say

      Followed by not mentioning what the other function is…

        Lanyard hole. Victorinox always considers keyring attachments as features.
