Original nail clipper patent

The birth of the modern clipper

Original patent by Heim & Matz

In 1881, Eugene Heim and Celestin Matz made history out of their shed in Cincinnati, OH with the invention of the double-jaw nail clipper.

With the addition of a powerful lever, the modern nail clipper—just like the one you own now—was born.

Historical nail clipper ads

Stuck between two blades

Lots of advice, but still a clipper

Up until the 1950s, print ads and even celebrity endorsements for nail clippers were commonplace. However, with a lack of ingenuity and innovation over time, the industry stopped thinking about nail clippers.

Some have attempted to mask the problem with superfluous features, but no one has reexamined the design. This essential grooming tool has become an ubiquitous relic.
