Nail Scissors for Kids CLASSIC 32 TYPE 1 - Staleks

The CLASSIC 32 TYPE 1 nail scissors for kids by Staleks answer a situation every parent knows: trimming tiny nails on a hand that will not stay still. Their key feature comes down to two words: rounded tips.

Where standard scissors end in a fine point, these blades finish with a softened end. The risk of a prick during a sudden movement drops considerably, and the whole moment becomes calmer, for the adult doing the trimming as much as for the child.

Safety first

A child moves, pulls the hand away, turns around. With rounded tips, a hand that darts sideways meets a blunt end rather than a point. This of course does not replace attention: these remain a cutting tool to be handled by an adult only, and stored out of reach of children after use.

A blade suited to thin nails

The nails of very young children are soft and extremely thin: they tend to bend in front of a dull or overly thick blade, and to split if the tool does not cut decisively. The curved, properly sharpened blades of the CLASSIC 32 TYPE 1 cut the nail rather than crush it, leaving an even edge with no snag that could catch on fabric.

The TYPE 1 suffix: what to take from it

On this reference as on the others, TYPE only identifies a variant of the model. Staleks publishes no definition of it: it is not a width, not a size, not a finishing grade, and the same number does not mean the same thing from one family of instruments to another. What matters here lies elsewhere, and it is verifiable: rounded tips, curved blades and manual sharpening on 40X13 stainless steel. To compare two pairs, go by the blade length stated on each spec sheet.

The right moment, the right movement

Pick a calm moment, after the bath when the nail is softer, or during a nap for the youngest. Hold the finger firmly, pressing the fingertip pad away with your thumb to expose the free edge, cut in small successive sections following the natural shape of the nail, and never try to cut very short. Finish with a soft file if needed to smooth the corners.

Nail scissors, not cuticle scissors

These scissors are made for the free edge of the nail, and for that alone. On a child, the cuticle should not be cut: simply leave it be. Keeping the tool to its purpose also preserves its edge.

CLASSIC range, stainless steel and care

The CLASSIC line by Staleks offers an accessible, well-finished and reliable tool that the manufacturer intends for the home, which is exactly the setting for nail care within the family. Made of stainless steel, these scissors are corrosion-resistant and withstand common disinfection procedures. Clean and dry the blades after every use, and ideally keep one pair per person.

The CLASSIC 32 TYPE 1 nail scissors for kids turn a moment many dread into a simple, quick and controlled movement.
