Pliers Have Built-In Wire Cutters for Small Repairs
Some pliers have built-in wire cutters near the hinge, just behind the gripping jaws. These can trim soft wire without needing a separate pair of cutters. Not every pair has this feature, though. It’s also worth checking whether the tool has wire strippers, which remove mechanism. Depending on the design, it may look like a small notch or hook in the metal. Other models have magnets that help lift cut lids from cans without touching the sharp edges.
Nail Clippers Often Have Built-In Nail Files
Many nail clippers have a small metal file that folds out from beneath the lever or sits along the body. It helps smooth rough edges after trimming. Some models also have a pointed tip for cleaning beneath nails, although the design and placement of these extra features vary.
