Many companies which manufacture or sell fancy-schmancy manicure implements offer either self-sharpening clippers or free professional sharpening for the life of the product. So I'm guessing that if you wanna do it yourself, you might find a professional sharpening service that hones nail clippers, and ask them how it's done. In any case, nail clippers apparently can be sharpened. HTH. |

Check with your local hardware store. There's an Ace by me that sharpens tools for $2-3 each. |
