6.5" Gardening Hand Pruner Pruning Shear with Straight Stainless Steel Blades Orange

Good product, use it for finning fish.

Me ha encantado

Bonne qualité de coupe

These are smaller than secateurs and meant for cutting thin items like flower stalks or deadheading not hard woody stalks, lightweight and easy to handle for snipping speedily, which is what I wanted. Seem sturdy too, reasonable price.Quick delivery free with other items ordered. The orange colour will make it easier to find them when I usually lose them in thick foliage.

Feels good in the hand, and is larger (5-10%?) in all dimensions than the comparable Fiskars trimmer, which costs about 2x this price. The blades bear against each other perfectly, and, on testing, I find I can even cut the thinnest piece of tissue paper with them, as a test of the blades' nesting together. If this matching or proximity of the blades should change, it's easy to tighten the Philips-head screw at the fulcrum of the tool. Handles are inlaid with non-slip rubber, a nice feature in case there's perspiration or precipitation when you're working. A great tool! Hats off, VivoSun!, and thanks. A minor quibble: I've become used to the action of the Fiskars. The VivoSun has a spring that's a bit stronger than Fiskars' spring. I'll either get "used to" this higher (greater) restoring-force that impels the blades apart, or I'll change the spring tension: How can I do that? Well, it's easy to remove the spring, and if I heat it in a gas flame on the stove, holding it with kitchen tongs or a pliers, and let it cool s-l-o-w-l-y, the tension of the hard spring may soften (this is "annealing"). IF I overdo the softening, I can heat it cherry-red again and plunge it into water to re-harden it. Simple. No hurry! Maybe I'll just get used to this stronger spring, and maybe it will also become a little weaker in force as I use it over months and years (yes, the construction of this trimmer is up to lasting years and decades, I'd say). The lock is very positive and easy to employ. Kudos! Again, a great tool, and it's a bargain. I'll use this on tomatoes, and other garden plants, for pruning and trimming of tender stems, and leaves. --Joe / Tucson AZ / USA UPDATE: May 29. 2021 >>>----> I've annealed (softened) the spring in the way I mention above, and it's just right now to my way of feeling and working. Another reviewer mentioned that he "shortened" the spring to reduce its tension, but, no need to cut it if you do the simple annealing of its hardness as I've outlined. Thus far, I've pruned six or seven cherry-tomato plants, and, oh yes, some of the larger fan-leaves from other plants that are now about 4 weeks into flowering. Excellent action of the pruner, and they are extremely precise. (BTW, laughable account by the reviewer who claims the stainless metal blades dissolved in isopropyl alcohol! Had a good chuckle... ). --JLM p.s. To protect the sharp ends and straightness of the precision-ground blade tips, I use a half of a wine-cork as a protector (you could trim the cork down further to make it more compact). This saves pockets from being punctured and perforated, too. ;-) I'll include a photo of the cork in place on the pruner tips, here with this edit. "Safety First!" A nice alternative to a cork would be to dip the tips into a can of the liquid "tool-handle" dip coating, like the "Plasti-Dip" which Amazon sells, and let that deposit harden-up until it's cured in a few hours (the Fiskars trimmer comes with a tip-protector like that). Best wishes trimming. -J.
