What it is
Swiss bypass secateurs sized for medium hands, with a hardened steel blade and anvil, lightweight composite handles and a shock absorber. Used for pruning flower stems through to woody growth.
Swiss bypass pruning shears sized for medium hands, with hardened steel blades and composite handles that absorb some of the shock of each cut. They are light enough for long pruning sessions and handle everything from flower stems to woody growth up to about 20 mm thick. Parts can be replaced as they wear. The bypass action means the blade slides past the anvil like scissors, giving a clean cut on live stems.
