I can't speak for Chris or his intentions for nail clippers, but when I'm out at the local lakes and rivers...I always have a pair on a lanyard around my neck. They come in handy for clipping the fishing line when swivels are not used, when fishing pliers aren't handy, and for when pliers are too bulky for a small fishing kit. They also clip fingernails, too :-)<br><br>John McIntire
