I've used "Nail Clippers" since the 80's especially for sea fishing as you can keep them handy in your pocket but they are no good for cutting braid. But for "fine work", with nylon, I do find them better than scissors as I can get closer to what I want trimming off in one go as you don't have the problem of the thickness of the blade.
Oddly enough I do recall "Sea Angler" ocasionally gave a pair of "Clippers" away free on cover of the magazine.

Yes I've found a rapalla one in my shed which I think was a freebie which is what has inspired my choice.
I'll keep my old scissors handy just in case 🙂
