Cheap Clippers?

[KBennett]

Anyone have a cheap brand of clippers they can reccomend that dont rust and aren't greased/oiled?

Human or pet grooming?

I think he is looking for coral cutters..i.e. bone cutters. Not actual clippers.


...but I could be wrong.

Oops, on Tapatalk right now and did not notice the category lol. My bad haha. Just go pick through a post surgery kit and wash em off lol.

I have the ecotech prop kit that I got on sale for $50. Great cutters in there.

Yes. I guess I meant bone cutters.
I don't want to spend $50 on them. I'm just worried that anything I get might rust or be coated in grease. I was hoping someone would say "I got these one at Canadian Tire and they work great"

Maybe someone still will

They all rust over time

On a plus side, the whole kit I got was only $50, tweezers, forceps, cutters, glue and a bunch of plugs.

I rince mine with ro water and dry them, so far so good and have had and been using it for a few months.

Drsfoster has some cheap good ones.

Exactly what I do with my frag kit and zero signs of fatigue or rust

Lol I just cut and leave them the way they are gotta be lazy at some point in this hobby
I've seen meny high end fraggers with rusty ones lol

I was just using regular side cutters from crappytire before I got these. Same deal, rinsed well with ro and dried, never had any issues.

I bought the cheap set and only use the small and large bone cutters, tweezers, and scalpel.... Still worth buying the whole kit tho....mine are kinda rusted but it's not really a big deal IMO..... I always rinse mine and dry them too.

I have the $50 ones and they still rust even rinsed in ro and dried. They only last about 6 months

i got mine at shoppers drug mart. 18$. theyre for nails but are the bone cutters, they will rust over time if not properly dried. work good tho.

Good idea. Then you could coat them in a nice thick layer of axle grease after to prevent rust. Lol

I just use side cutter pliers they work well.

dollarama man 1.25-3 $ for lots of things squeeze bottle,spray bottles, 3gal pails , strainers, turkey basters, coral shipment tupperware, super glue, side cutters...... at least thats where i get all that and at that price they can rust all they want i just toss them and get another when i need glue lol the more you save on stuff like that the more you can spent on additives and foods or new frags unless a matching shiny set stashed in a pretty little case is what you really want
