Comparison Victorinox and Zwilling Nail Clippers

Which is better? We put it to the test. Victorinox cost about RM50 with a leather case. Zwilling cost about RM88 after discount. Results may vary by users but this is what I found reflects my usage. 

These are travel size friendly so many do carry them as part of the ECD for impeccable grooming.

Side profile. It's obvious the Zwilling is bulkier in stature but both are sturdily and solidly built.

Front view. The cutting profile is visibly different. The Victorinox is straight while the Zwilling is curved. Looks can be deceiving as viewed from this angle, the curved profile seems to have a better cutting edge as our nails are curved just like our fingers. 

Ready to commence the test

The Victorinox has a better and bigger filing surface. Don't get me wrong, the Zwilling does its job well although with a much smaller surface. 

Verdict? To me the Victorinox is much easier to use, with its straight cutting profile. The cutting edge is also sharper. The Zwilling with its curved edge at times takes a little getting used to adjusting to the natural curvature of my nails. The profile of the Zwilling may be a little too curved for my nails. 

I don't know if the picture does justice to the Victorinox but if you can see the cutting of the nails are smoother 

The Zwilling still has some rough edges, visibly seen.
