Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Fiskars loop handle bypass pruner features a comfortable softgrip upper handle for added padding against friction. The loop handle design also allows hands to relax without having to put the tool down, as well as safeguards against slipping during use. The slim, but strong tool will fit nicely into an apron or pants pocket when not in use, and can easily cut branches up to 3/4-inches in diameter. Featuring an ideal blade length for precision cutting and maneuvering through dense growth, the featured European grip design is sized for both small and medium hands, and the unique handle design also allows for both left and right-handed use. The blade includes a locking mechanism that helps prevent accidents as well as provides for easy transportation. This bypass pruner allows for precise, clean cuts as the hook contacts only one side of the cut, causing less plant damage.

My new Fiskars loop-handle pruners arrived today. I was attracted to these by the loop handle because I thought I could tie a cord to the loop, saving me a trip down the ladder to pick them up when I drop them. I was pleasantly surprised by the compactness of these pruners. They are very comfortable in my hand. They also do a very good job of snipping off branches up to about 3/8" in diameter. I managed to get through a larger (a little over 1/2" in diameter) branch, but it was hard work and seemed to stress the tool. I was pruning a plum tree, and the wood is pretty tough. Maybe on softer stuff they will easily get through the 3/4" branches as Fiskars says they will. Anyway, I am glad I bought them for the work I do.

These are so easy on the hands - no aching thumbs or wrists. They are the best gardening clippers I have ever used.

I purchased this as a replacement for a broken pair of pruners, and I am glad I made this choice. The grip is excellent (like holding a pair of adult scissors), and the cutting power is outstanding.

Buy this with confidence!
