    Trim your nails once a week?!! What kind of monster growth do you have 😳 "Weekly trimming helps maintain hygiene, prevent dirt buildup, and reduce the risk of broken or ingrown nails."... Sweety just clean them! And I'm guessing you've never had an ingrown nail 'cause that's bad advice.

    I read here in sweden max 10 y, some say 5 - 15, some say reload them every 5 years and then change the housing every 10 years. But what I go for here is 10 years. How do you do with them?

    I dispute the knife-holding one. A different grip may be needed on different knives, and for different uses, but I've just tried the one they describe on a couple of sizes and no, it's almost impossible, brings my middle finger right up to the edge of the blade, would be really easy to slip down it.
