Features

• Powerful Anvil Cutting Action: Designed for maximum leverage, making it easier to slice through hard, dry, or dead wood without the blades twisting.
• 15 mm Cutting Capacity: Precision-hardened blade capable of handling branches and stems up to 15 mm in diameter with ease.
• Compact 190 mm Profile: Perfectly sized for maneuverability in dense foliage while remaining large enough to provide comfortable two-finger leverage.
• High-Carbon Steel Blade: Features a non-stick coating to reduce friction, prevent sap buildup, and protect against rust.
• Ergonomic Safety Grip: Non-slip handles designed to fit the palm naturally, reducing the risk of blisters and hand fatigue during long pruning sessions.

Applications

• Unlock: Use your thumb to slide the safety catch back, allowing the handles to spring open.
• Positioning: Place the branch or stem directly onto the flat anvil base. Ensure the branch is as far back in the "jaw" as possible for maximum leverage.
• The Cut: Squeeze the handles firmly. The top blade will come down onto the anvil, chopping through the wood cleanly.
• Blade Care: After use on dry or old wood, wipe away any dust or wood fibers. Occasionally oil the pivot point to keep the spring action smooth.
• Secure: Close the blades and engage the safety lock immediately after use for safe storage.

Usage

• Deadwood Removal: The best choice for snipping away dry, brittle, or dead branches from shrubs and trees.
• Hardwood Pruning: Ideal for thicker, woody stems that are too tough for bypass-style secateurs.
• Orchard Cleanup: Efficiently clear away old growth from fruit trees to encourage new seasonal budding.
• Vineyard Maintenance: Perfect for cutting back thick, mature grapevines during the dormant season.
• General Landscaping: A reliable "all-rounder" tool for cutting garden twine, plastic ties, or small woody debris.
