Scissors

Shears and secateurs for the garden and grounds maintenance: pruning branches and hedges, by hand or with cordless tools.

Types available

• Bypass pruning shears and secateurs, with blades that pass each other like scissors, also with holster (Milwaukee, Verdelook).
• Loppers and long-handled branch cutters for thicker branches (A.M.E.S., Verdelook).
• Hedge shears, also telescopic (Verdelook).
• Cordless pruning shears, with or without battery set (Kärcher, Milwaukee).

How to choose

The diameter of the branches to be cut matters: secateurs are enough for thin ones, while thick ones call for loppers or cordless shears. If you prune often, the cordless version reduces effort. Check the grip and the weight of the tool.

Maintenance extends the life of the tool: after use it is worth cleaning the sap off the blades, sharpening them when the cut becomes ragged and lubricating the moving parts.
