Japanese Forged Carbon Steel Strong Pruning Shears

Japanese Forged Carbon Steel Strong Pruning Shears
£79.00
Ex Tax: £65.83

A sturdy and effective pair of forged carbon steel bypass secateurs, made in Sanjō, a city located in Niigata Prefecture, Japan by Kobayashi, a specialist Garden Scissor and Shear maker. Their strong, sharp blades will make light work of pruning and trimming in the garden. These shears have carbon-steel blades, which means they will keep their sharp edge really well, but also means they should be carefully dried after use, and lightly oiled if putting away for a longer period (carbon steel tools are best used often to avoid rusting). Comes with a standard torsion spring or volute coil spring — so you can choose which to use. With a total length of 200mm, blade length is 55mm, and they weigh 230 grams.

Care Advice

Wipe thoroughly after use to remove any plant residue or sap, and follow with a light coating of oil to protect from rust. Store in a dry environment. Sharpen with a curved secateur stone, if the blade edges are concave.
