Most people treat a nail clipper as a single-purpose tool: trim, toss back in the drawer, forget. Yet built into its design is a small round hole that quietly transforms it into something far more versatile. One simple use is as a keychain hook. By threading a ring or clip through that hole, you can attach the clipper to your keys, bag, or belt loop, keeping it within reach and far less likely to be lost just when you need it most.
Beyond convenience, the hole also works as a clever aid for bending small metal wires. Slip a thin wire through the opening, then press and pull to shape it into smooth, controlled curves without sharp kinks. This makes quick work of small DIY tasks, jewelry adjustments, or craft projects. What looks like a meaningless detail is actually a tiny, built‑in multitool hiding in plain sight.
