Edward Tools Classic Cut Bypass Pruners - Heavy Duty Forged Steel Pruning Shears - Cuts up to 1" Diameter - Safety Lock Design - Non Slip Grip

Very good craftsman ship.

Excellent price and very sharp and performed as expected.

Standard garden use pruner for a good price. I purchased a half dozen pruners for my vineyard volunteers who did thousands of vine cuts this past year with no issue. Easy grip, spring loaded, it works well. My only complaint is one out of the 6 had a lock close clip mechanism that wasn't working but it was fixed with a needle nose pliers and I provide holsters for each pruner anyway so it wasn't a big deal. Typical build-up of accumulation between blades were easily cleaned. It performed well, the blades were sharp and oil lubricated. Proven durability.

My wife, the gardener, likes these clippers and says they are as good as the Corona Brand but much cheaper.

These are fantastic, not just for the money. They seem quite similar to my (expensive, but also great) Felco pruners in heft, size, and function. Many pruners have a limited range of opening angle, so you can't get them around more sturdy branches. These definitely do, and that also makes them much easier to sharpen from the base of the blade to the tip. They feel good in my hand and they do the job well.

Right off the bat, as other reviewers have stated, the latch is loosely affixed, so it will lock in the middle of working with them - I had to put a rubber band around one of the handles to hold the latch down. Also after about 6 months the rubber/plastic grips on the handles became brittle and came off. The thing still works and seems to keep its sharpness pretty well.

These are made really well! Very sturdy and not like Fiskars or other box store brands. They can be taken apart cleaned, sharpened and oiled. These will last a lifetime with proper care!

I purchased these to trim the vegetation around my property which consists of a bunch of oak trees and a variety of woody shrubs. These clippers feel very solidly built and can cut the branches without difficulty. They are fairly small and light and easy to wield and my hands don’t hurt after a good session of rush trimming.My only complaint is that the rubber handle coverings tend to slide off with heavy use so I eventually just removed them.I find these cutters to be a good value and a handy tool. Based on my experience using them over the past several months I would not hesitate to recommend them to a friend.
