Keep Your Clippers Within Reach
The most common reason for that small hole? Easy storage and portability. Slide a key ring, lanyard, or small metal loop through it, and suddenly your nail clipper becomes far less likely to get lost. Attach it to house keys, a backpack, or a bathroom hook, and you’ll always know where it is—no more digging through drawers or rummaging at the bottom of a toiletry bag.
