SUWADA Blacksmith Works
Beauty instruments should be aesthetically perfect themselves, and bring enjoyment and satisfaction throughout their user's lifetime. This philosophy stands behind the SUWADA professional nippers. Every aspect of their patented design supports their primary function - cutting. Their solid high-carbon stainless steel is usually encountered only in custom-made knives. Blades are finished at a more acute angle than is found in other nippers on the market, for a sharper and more precise cut. And the unique nail-fitting curve of the SUWADA nippers maximizes safety and ease of use, even for tough toenails and ingrown nails. Every nipper is fully hand finished with meticulous care by skilled craftsmen. The SUWADA nippers are the ultimate in manicure and pedicure instruments for professionals at nail salons and clinics, and for discerning consumers.
