Where is the lever of the hammer?
The lever class of a hammer depends upon its use. If the hammer is used as a claw to remove a nail, it is a first class lever. When the hammer is used to strike a nail, it is a third class lever. There are three classes of levers. The difference between the classes lies in the position of the load, the effort and the fulcrum. When the fulcrum is between the load and effort, the object is a first class lever. If the load is between the fulcrum and effort, the object is a second class lever. A third class lever places the effort between the load and the fulcrum.

How is a hammer pulling out a nail a 3 class lever?
A hammer is a 3rd class lever. A third class lever has a load-effort-fulcrum configuration. What is interesting about a hammer is that though the load is the head of the hammer, the effort and the fulcrum are both in the hand. What makes it a 3rd class lever is that the effort is more in the hand and fingers, while the fulcrum is closer to the base of the hand at the wrist.
Is nail cutter a third class lever?
It uses both third class and second class level., because, the part which is cutting the nail, is the third class. But the part where you're putting the finger and pushing, that becomes second class lever.
