Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Corona Clipper professional bypass pruner takes pruning performance and comfort to extraordinary new levels. It features a forged hook for extra strength, forged alloy blades that are fully heat-treated to hold a precision edge after sharpening, a shock-absorbing bumper that reduces the stress of constant daily-use, internal grease relief, and a precision-machined self-aligning pivot bolt and a patented hi-torque all-steel locking nut. Additionally, it has a 45-degree head-to-handle cutting angle that optimally positions your hand and wrist for less fatigue and greater cutting comfort. The unit's broad-shouldered handles make for a secure grip with less pressure during rapid, repetitious cutting, and provide a well-balanced, natural fit even at the end of a long day of pruning. An improved thumb lock that's easy to operate and stays out of the way while the tool is in use is also featured on this model. The bearing surface area is extra large and, together with optimized blade bevel and sharpening angles, provides maximum stability and enables you to slice swiftly and cleanly through even the hardest high-density branches and deadwood. The pruner carries a limited lifetime warranty.

5.0 out of 5 stars Maybe I need a support group, June 13, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Corona Clipper Professional Bypass Pruner BP 6240 (Lawn & Patio)
My introduction to the Corona Clipper Company came utterly by chance when I bought their Homeowners 1/2" pruner simply because it was the first one I saw. I was so thoroughly impressed with the quality of that pruner that I've since added about a half dozen different Corona tools to my collection, and I want even more!

As good as their Homeowner models are, the Professional series has a host of valuable improvements. Ergonomically, the angled cutting head makes for a slightly more comfortable cutting position, and the handles are thicker, so it's a little more comfortable to hold. And joy - the Professional series has a different type of locking clasp that's not nearly as fickle as on the Homeowner's series (my only real complaint about that line of pruners is the rather unreliable clasp).

What continually impresses me about Corona's tools is how well they're designed and manufactured. Compare this pruner to pruners that look similar, from companies like Fiskars, and the difference in the quality of the materials and construction is incredibly obvious. The thickness of the blade is a good way to compare brands - Corona's beefy blade is twice as thick as some other brands, so you know it's going to be more durable, less likely to break or wear prematurely. This pruner has a heft and solidity and smoothness of movement that other, less expensive brands lack, and it's this overall level of quality and substantial feeling that makes it a tool that will outlast its competition. When you really bear down on it to slice through a limb, the tool doesn't flex, give, or yield in any measure; it remains solid and just does what it's supposed to, every time. Yes, they cost a little more, but you really do get what you pay for.

A word of advice...if you're thinking about getting one of the larger models - the 3/4" or 1" capacities - you better have big hands, because they open pretty wide and it can be difficult to apply enough pressure to cut a branch if you don't have long (and strong) enough fingers to hold and squeeze the handles. Don't just assume that, "Well, if I get the 1-inch model, I'll be able to cut bigger branches! Life will be grand! I'll be the envy of my neighbors!", because if your hand isn't large enough to span the handles when you open the pruner around that one-inch branch, you'll end up having to use two hands, one on each handle, pressing together, and when your neighbors see that awkward maneuver, they'll hardly be envious. They may even snicker a little.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best, November 10, 2001
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Corona Clipper Professional Bypass Pruner BP 6240 (Lawn & Patio)
I have used these clippers enough by now to say they are the best I have ever used. The angle of the blades is so much more useful than the straight ones. The quality is outstanding.

18 months later and I still think these are the best clippers. Yes, it helps to have long, strong fingers. No shame in using two hands, especially when you can cut larger branches than the 1 inch promised.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good, stays sharp!, June 26, 2004
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Corona Clipper Professional Bypass Pruner BP 6240 (Lawn & Patio)
Great pruners! I have used these for over a month now, they are still sharp and cut with ease. I've trimmed all the weeds, tree's and cut along the walkway in our yard.... they cut great, I can't say enough good things about these pruners. One thing I like is they never seem to dull. My neighbor's borrowed them for a few days, they bought a pair so I was lucky to get mine back. A great value, very good pruners.
