Why it earns a look
- The narrow straight blades fit among stems.
- The grips are designed for either hand.
Where it asks for a compromise
- They are not a substitute for branch loppers.
Keep a narrow pair for the harvesting basket
Long straight blades can reach among stems more neatly than a bulky branch pruner. That makes this a useful separate tool for flowers and light harvesting. Save the bypass pruner for the woody growth it was designed to take.
Living with it in the garden
Remove sap and plant debris after use.
Close and secure the blades for storage.
