| Felco® is the recognized leader in fine pruning shears, but most of their products cost $45 to $50 on a good day. Except this one! Designed with the same high-quality materials, engineering, and ergonomics, all this fine hand pruner lacks is the "little extras" (such as a sap groove, for heaven's sake!) that drive the price up. Constructed of solid steel with rubber-cushioned handles, these pruners offer excellent cutting ability -- at HALF the price of other Felcos®! 7 1/4 inches long, they weigh a full 7.5 ounces and are designed for a lifetime of hard use. I've got one pair from 1993 that I certainly don't pamper (in fact, I can't remember the last time I had the blades sharpened), and it's my reliable garden favorite. If you've never used a Felco® before, welcome home. They're the best. |
