About this product
How the Bypass Pruning Shears works
Bypass shears cut by sliding one blade past the other, which leaves the live stem with a smooth, clean wound. That matters on fruit trees and vines, where a ragged cut can invite disease and slow healing.
The upper blade is curved and finished dark, so sap wipes off easily. The lower jaw is a hook that holds the branch in place while the blade closes, which stops the stem from rolling out as you squeeze.
Green-and-black handles with a firm grip suit a working day in the rows. A small locking catch keeps the blade closed in a pocket or holster, and the pivot can be tightened as the tool wears in.
Before you buy the Bypass Pruning Shears
Every orchardist, vineyard worker and gardener needs a good pair of bypass shears. Look for a comfortable grip, a sharp curved blade and a locking catch. Replacement blades and springs are available, so a good pair can last many seasons with simple care.
