I bought this pruner about 3 years ago from a rose speciality store and they recommended it over the much more expensive Felco pruner they carried. Convinced, I bought it and after years of use would never think of buying another brand. Made in France, it is designed to cut through a 3/4" branch but it will do larger as well. The handle is comfortable and the spring action is well-balanced so it can be used for hours without any fatique or fear of carpul tunnel syndrome. I only wish it had a strap to wrap around my wrist as I recently lost mine (probably left underneath a pile of leaves and branches and accidentaly thrown away) and had to replace it. The price is great as this is a top of the line pruner and I'm amazed that more stores don't carry this brand.

This tool is not cheap, but is worth every penny. The design is simple and durable, the blades cut cleanly and keep cutting without failure - even with minimal maintenance. The handles are comfortable for smaller hands and allow many hours of use without fatigue.
