What is true of Japanese knives is also true of Japanese scissors: they are extremely sharp. This model has forged blades made of carbon steel and is also - as you can easily see from the stamped characters - made by hand, from forging to grinding and polishing to final assembly (although it is not quite as detailed as that). Simply shaped to fit the anatomy of the hand, made of solid metal and fitted with a strong torsion spring, the shears with their hardened blades are suitable for pruning shrubs, roses and woody plants (up to 2.5 cm branch diameter).

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.
