Excellent pruner that is very high quality.
These are fantastic pruners that are super sharp and cut through larger limbs easily. They work so smooth you can tell they are high quality. And you can open and shut the locking handle with one hand by just using your Pant leg.

Look no further – buy these!
If you want a quality pair of pruners that will last you many years – buy these. They are built like a tank, even the locking mechanism closes with a robust thunk. They are very sharp and easy to sharpen. They slice through most sticks and canes with ease. I have used more expensive brands and I can’t believe these only cost me 30 bucks.

Excellent pruning shears, average holster
High quality, well built, keeps its edge. One thing I would improve on, though, is the holster. It doesn’t have a strap to keep the shears from falling out if you’re actively bending/lifting/working on things out in the garden. It has fallen out on me twice and I had to form a search party to relocate them

Wonderful Clippers
Fantastic, haven’t found a thing they won’t cut through, within reason of course. Easy to hold, no fight to get through hard wood, easy to nip tiny or tight pieces, and easy to clean.

Fantastic pruner
I debated between these and the Felco for a long time but went with these and I’m so glad I did. I was mostly concerned about the latching mechanism on these being difficult to use but it’s actually great, much easier than the thumb latch and very robust. These feel great in hand, are the perfect size for what I need, cut great and make a very satisfying sound!!Honestly I go searching for more things to prune just to use them!! I will say that it’s not stainless steel so it does rust, even though I usually wipe them off and I even oiled them over the winter. All in all these are a great pruner at a fair price and I would definitely buy them again (although I don’t think I’ll have to as this pair seems like it will last for quite a while!).

I used to think Felcos were the best…
I’ve used Felcos for decades, but, now, I grab the Okatsune virtually every time. I still love my Felcos, but I find the Okatsune to be more precise, even when I use my left hand (I’m right-handed, but these work in either hand). My Felcos are older (though I have one that is relatively new), so this may not be a fair comparison, but the Okatsune blade seems to not only hold a sharp edge longer, but it doesn’t seem to attract sap the way the Felcos do. A note about sizing & fit: having spent a lot of time in Japan, I assumed my women’s small/medium hands in American glove size would translate to at least a medium Okatsune (#103). I was actually wondering if the mediums would be too small, but I was surprised to find that the smaller model (#101) was initially a lot more comfortable to me. But, the #103 is growing on me because it offers a longer cutting edge and I’m getting used to the wider span of the handles when they pop open. At first, it felt like I had to stretch a bit to close them, but a small adjustment to my grip solves this. Surprisingly, I found that my Felco pruners actually open wider, but the difference is in the spring mechanism. The Okatsune’s pop open with stronger force, so they open all the way, while the Felco spring opens with variable pressure that weakens as it opens, so my fingers naturally keep it from opening all the way. Both work, but the fact that the Okatsune spring does all the work for you makes it less tiring on my hands. I imagine that, as I get older, this will make a big difference.

Awesome build, rust easy.
Great quality build but they rust pretty easy, especially for garden shears. Probably solvable with regular oiling

Small hand pruners
Great little pruners for my small hands. Easy to work, like the bottom latch and ease of cutting.

Bonjour, ce sécateur coupe très bien, il a une légère émouture convex propre au lame japonaise.Je l’utilise pour les grosses coupe de mes buissons et arbustes.L’ergonomie est bien aussi, pas mal aux mains.L’aspect visuelle de premier abord parait cheap avec ses manches entouré de plastique mais il m’a l’air solide.Par contre je ne sais pas où trouver des ressorts de rechange, j’espère qu’il tiendra longtemps.À savoir aussi que les lames ne se changent pas donc entretenez les bien. Moi je la passe après utilisation avec du cuir et pate a polir blanche que j’ai collé sur une baguette en bois pour passer entre les lames et ça coupe rasoir.

You get what you pay for here. A premium product that performs like a dream. Super sharp and stays sharp. Great ergonomics and cutting power. My wife won’t use anything else now that she has these.

Forbici a dir poco magnifiche. Manici semplici e con un’ottima ergonomia. Personalmente le sento bene in mano e la lunghezza per me è perfetta. Certo non hanno la forma anatomica delle Felco 8 che uso da un po’, però la qualità dell’acciaio è indiscutibilmente superiore. Mi piace molto anche la chiusura che reputo robusta e super sicura. In pratica, pur avendo le straordinarie Felco n. 8, destinate principalmente ai destrorsi, ho comprato quest’altre perché essendo ambidestro ne volevo un tipo utilizzabile anche con la sinistra e da quante ne ho viste questa è il connubio perfetto tra elevata qualità delle lame e usabilità con entrambe le mani. Come si vede in foto è tutto scritto in giapponese e la cosa mi ha fatto molto piacere perché è segno che questo pezzo è stato prodotto per il mercato interno dove solitamente lo standard qualitativo è più alto. Il costo naturalmente è rapportato alla qualità del prodotto. Conto a breve di comprare anche il fodero in cuoio a lei dedicato. Spedizione Prime come al solito efficiente.

Las mejores tijeras de podar que he tenido, mi jardinero las probó y me pidió que le comprase unas, excepcional capacidad de corte y comodidad para trabajar.La sensación de calidad cuando las utilizas es fenomenal, las anteriores que tenía se obturaban continuamente al cortar algunos tipos de madera y con estas no hay ningún problema.

Nachdem die erste Lieferung auf dem Versandweg verloren ging, hat der Lieferant sofort eine Nachlieferung auf den Weg gebracht. Zusätzlich erhielt ich noch Rabatt und ein hochwertiges, passendes Lederetui dazu.Ein wirklich sehr kulantes Verhalten des Lieferanten!Die Gartenschere ist absolut top und rasierklingenscharf. Sie liegt gut in der Hand und schneidet perfekt ohne zu fransen. Sehr empfehlenswert!
