ABSTRACT:
A nail clipper designed to trim a portion of the nail of a person's digit without causing injury to the flesh portion of the digit includes a U-shaped body that has a first and second end and includes first and second, spaced-apart handles interconnected by a central arc portion between the handles proximate the first end. The handles are resiliently biased by the central arc portion into a partially extending, normal resting position. The central arc portion serves as a hinge. A first blade is fixedly coupled to the first handle and has a cutting slot defined in the structure thereof. A second blade is operably, pivotally coupled to the first handle and has an actuator for imparting pivotal motion thereto. The actuator is operably coupled to the second handle. The first blade cutting slot and the second blade form a shearing relationship therebetween, whereby a portion of the structure of the first blade is a safety barrier acting to prevent the presentation of the flesh of the digit to the shearing effects of the second blade with respect to the first blade cutting slot.
