4.0 out of 5 stars Not Bypass, March 31, 2008

The description claims "bypass anvil pruner." It is an anvil pruner, not a bypass.
The 18T is my favorite pruner. It aims easily so you can cut in areas where you can't see well, as in thick brush, grapevines, or spring perennial cleanup. It's handier than the bigger 19T, and has better leverage because your are closer to your work.
Unfortunately, it's not the quality of the old 18T by SnapCut, before Gilmour bought it. But still hard to beat.

I was so proud to have ordered this as one of my husband's birthday gifts....we're big on landscaping our 5 acre yard, and are always fighting over tools, so i thought to get an extra...poor joe, as soon as he started using it, the spring flew off and it's useless....$12 something wasted...and of course, it's 'used', so it's not returnable....didn't realize that...I'd really thought your return policy was better than that....it was from amazon itself....joined the free shipping for a year, and so I will have to keep with that, but I'll certainly be more careful in purchasing other items....

I was sent the 1/4 chinese model and promptly returned it. If there was something less than one star that would have been my choice for rating this item. Another American company bites the dust!
