Why you’d want it: Turns a syringe into something that can't stick anyone. Handy for travel, where a full sharps bin is one more thing to carry.

Picking tip: This removes the needle, not the risk — the clipper itself is a sharps container when it's full, so it still goes to a drop-off point. It fits insulin syringes and pen needles; it doesn't fit thicker drawing needles.
