A nail clipper with a catcher comprises a bottom container, a resilient top plate having connection at a rear end of the container to urge the top plate away from the container, the container having an upturned cutting edge at a front end of the container, the plate having a downturned cutting edge opposite to the upturned cutting edge, and a lever having a bent end portion with a shaft which engages a post mounted on the container for moving the plate up and down to clip nails, which clippings fall into the container. The shaft also forms a hole in the bent portion of the lever. A protrusion is provided on each side of the opening in the top plate. The lever is rotatable into three different positions. In a closed position, the two cutting edges are in contact so that the clippings container is closed. In the clipping position, the cutting edges are spaced from each other a sufficient distance to receive nails for clipping. In the emptying position, a relatively large spacing is provided between the cutting edges through which the clippings may be emptied when the cutting edges are faced downward.
