With their long, forged blades made of carbon steel (with a very high carbon content of 0.8 to 0.9%), these Japanese secateurs are very suitable for topiary; however, they are also recommended as flower shears, for cutting thin branches or lawn edges. Their cutting edges are also hard chrome-plated and therefore rustproof. The hardened aluminum handles are slightly roughened for a secure grip.

When choosing the right secateurs, it is important to first answer the question of what you want to cut. Our shears differ in terms of material, size, weight and features, so each one has a specific task. There are basically two types of shears: With bypass shears, two blades glide past each other, leaving a clean, smooth cut; with anvil shears, on the other hand, a sharp blade meets the stationary anvil. Bypass shears are particularly suitable for precise cuts requiring little force on thinner pruning material - such as roses, shrubs or perennials - while anvil shears can be used to make powerful cuts on thicker branches, making them particularly suitable for pruning woody plants. In our range you will find, for example, specialists for topiary or thinning, for a particularly hand-friendly working method or an extra-strong cut for particularly thick branches.
