Tweezers are small tools used for picking up objects too small to be easily handled with the human fingers. The tool is most likely derived from tongs, pincers, or scissors-like pliers used to grab or hold hot objects since the dawn of recorded history.

Tweezers come in a variety of tip shapes and sizes. Blunt tip tweezers have a rounded end which can be used when a pointed object may get entangled, when manipulating cotton swabs, for example. Flat tip tweezers, pictured at right, have an angled tip which may be used for removing splinters. Some tweezers have a long needle-like tip which may be useful for reaching into small crevices. Triangular tip tweezers have larger, wider tips useful for gripping larger objects. Tweezers with curved tips also exist, sometimes called bent forceps.
How do you choose tweezers?
Your tweezers should be made of strong and durable metal. If you've had to replace your tweezers multiple times, they are not doing their job. A good pair of tweezers should last a very long time – potentially a lifetime. Tip: keep the protective casing for your tweezer tips + put it back on after every use.

Love this brand of tweezer. Great quality. Can pluck the finest and tiniest hairs. I have purchased several. As they may be durable, if you drop them on their tips they bend or dent and then it will no longer line up or have dual flush surfaces to clamp the hairs. I am not the most graceful person.
The tips can be sharpened by a quality knife sharpener. I wait until I have several items before taking everything in. Very happy with my purchase.
