Can you open this clipper to cut thicker toenails? I had one that could, and lost it.

yes you can, but you have to handle the clipper right, because you have to open the clipper a little more then when you start clipping your toenail, sometimes you can't control ithope this would answer your question

They will spring open to about 2mm and will open considerably larger. However, without the spring tension, the two piece lever may not stay in together as one piece

It opens plenty far for me to use on my toes. The spring probably needs adjusted and it does have a habit of "flopping" around a bit unless held correctly. The cutting edge is great though. Wasnt sure about spending $20+ on nail clippers when they are usually so inexpensive but have since become quite the fan.

Yes. It actually sort of detaches and folds totally flat in a rectangle shape when not in use. To use it, the piece you press on to clip a nail off slides up from the bottom and slots in. Exceptionally sturdy still; no worries that it would come apart or something.

if you can get the nail into it then yes. If it will not fit under the trimmer I would take to a dog groomer and get it trimmed. this clipper is wonderful, we were paying $10 a month so it has paid for itself. I recommend getting styptic powder in case you go too far in cutting your dogs nails. just something good to have around.

Karin, No, the groomer cannot clip the nails. The nail caps cover the entire nail and grow out with time. My dog lost them naturally. Be warned though, the dogs nails will get long as they won't wear down like they normally do from walking on pavement or running in the yard.

You can, I honestly don't recommend these clippers though. Mine lasted only two months.

I can open it easily with my fingernail. You may need to push the right point to open it.

It is very difficult to grab your nails.. but when you do grab them, it cuts easily. Not the easiest clippers to use. It does not have a compartment to catch the clippings. Hope this helps.

Absolutely, My husband has a few toes that were frostbitten years ago with very thick nails, and it cuts them easily. They are comfortable to handle, and so easy to use. I absolutely recommend them. Elizabeth, I hope that helps

I wouldn't really recommend it. They have a distinctive curve, whereas toenail clippers are more straight across.

with any clippers yes- but just go slowly- it does have a nice nail guard and I have started doing once every week or so until they are normal- hers were long - these are really great clippers sharp and quick

Yes, if you can loosen the screw. I could not so I used a butterknife and hammer to adjust ever so slightly. Otherwise I like the fact that I cannot over trim my pets nails. Works well.

Not really, about the same size as a standard "Finger Nail Clipper", this is not a toe clipper, though it is very sharp.

there is a gauge stop that pulls under clipper so you can not over cut the nail. and there is a lock to keep the clippers closed.

At one end, there is a little "slot" look like you can put the edge of a coin or butter knife to pry open. I just used my finger nail & didn't have any problems.

I cannot see why not? I assume you are using another clipper now. This is just a better clipper IMHO.

I can't answer this question because I returned this for a refund, I couldn't clip my toenails with it. I gave a 1 star review.

I use these for my toenails as I never really understood the need for both as long as the nail clippers were durable enough to cut through them. Some people do recommend you cut your toenails on less of a curve, and as long as you don't use the full length of this clipper, you will not have a problem doing that. I do have separate toenail clippers i have purchased from other brands, but prefer these for both fingernails and toenails.
