Cuticle Nipper is made of Stainless Steel to prevent rust, and it features some great technology. If you like the action of a double-spring nipper but don't like the hefty price, this is a great alternative. The internal spring in this nipper will give you the same feel, at a fraction of the cost. Plus, the soft, cushioned handle inserts provide a comfortable, non-slip grip too. It's a great nipper at a great price!
