NY RAT:

I don't go with large nail clippers for toes anymore.

The pointed nose nail cutters with handles like pliers, a stay open spring, and a pivot bar to keep it closed when not using them are what I use for toe nails.

You get more power from them and pointed cutter works for getting out ingrown toenails, scraping out toe jam, and even precision work that you may need to do on your fingernails like hangnail removal.

Just do not get tempted to use them for other tasks as you will seriously compromise their ability to do what they are designed for.

The quality ones hereabouts cost +- $15.00 USD and most are warranted for life. I bought a pair of Revlon cutters a long time ago, and have had them replaced for free at Walgreens drug stores because the hold open spring failed.

Good luck!
