Default Nail clippers

Hi, does anyone know where to buy reptile nail clippers from in the UK? I've been using normal nail clippers but I think smaller, rounded ones would be better for tiny nails.

Cheers

It looks like it might be a bit big for blue-tongued skink nails, I'd be scared it'd rip his little toes off! Thanks for the suggestion though, I may still try one if I can't find any clippers.

i take the orange cover off. all it is a sander so you have control how much you take off, so if it were to move you wont chop his toe off! i get scared using clippers! seriously i use it on all my boscs have no problem at all, its well worth it

I use small pet nail clippers for the local vets, I also have seen them in pets at home, the small green handled one, I use them for my beardies, skinks, monitors etc, without any issues.
