Nail scissors
Nail scissors are small solid scissors with short, predominantly curved blades. They are used to shorten and shape finger and toe nails. Nail scissors with a so-called tower point serve as combination scissors, i.e. they can be used for nails as well as for fine corners and cuticles.
Cuticle scissors
Cuticle scissors are small precision instruments used to carefully remove fine corns. The tips are slim and evenly ground so they reach right into the corners of the nails. With these fine scissors the skin which has been pushed back with a nail pusher can be snipped away evenly.
