I guess this is sort of a mini review, but the gist of these clips is they're retro-styled, very strong, chrome-plated clips. Their edges aren't too sharp and I have never clamped or pinched myself in them. Although you can use them to hang things from your walls or hold papers together, I have used them mostly for holding notebooks open when I am, for example, trying to copy from one to another (great for students and note taking) and when I want to take pictures of an open notebook. They are robust, tough, and will last a long time. They're not inexpensive but I think they're affordable enough.
They take a little effort to open to their full capacity but they are relatively easy for just a few papers here and there. I did not find them too difficult to open completely.

You can sort of see the level of exertion in my thumb.

The large clamp is too big for a smaller notebook like this.

The small clamp is best!
Great if you're looking for paper clamps, but especially great if you're looking for clamps to hold your notebooks open for pictures!
