Fiskars Bypass Pruning Shears, 5/8" Cut Capacity Gardening Scissors, Self-Cleaning Sap Groove Prevents Sticking, Non-Slip Grip for Cutting Stems & Branches, Sharp Steel Blades w/ Low-Friction Coating

I bought these Fiskars bypass pruning shears after my off-brand garden clippers snapped after just one use, and the difference is huge. These feel sturdy, solid, and comfortable in the hand, even after a good amount of trimming. I usually cut wilted hydrangea blooms toward the end of the fall season to prep for next year’s flowers, and this made the whole job so much easier. The blades are sharp and cut through stems and smaller branches cleanly with very little effort, which I really appreciate when I am squeezing yard work in between kid activities. No crushing, no tearing, just neat cuts. For the quality and how well they perform, this feels worth every penny and like a tool that will last more than just one season.

I already own a pair of Fiskars PowerArc scissors that have performed consistently well for me throughout the years so when my pruners broke I decided to try the brand. I bought this pair simply because as it turns out, they were the #1 best seller and the price. I couldn’t be happier! I’ve been using them for a few weeks now and have been cutting through a variety of woody, and non-woody stems measuring maybe an 1 inch or less diameter with ease: small/underdeveloped tree branches (elm, bougainvillea & crape myrtle), vines (smilax/greenbriar/wisteria/morning glory) and any other undesirable growths that have sprung up. I have small hands and weak wrists so I appreciate the light weight and not having to apply a great amount of force when cutting. Other things I like: 1. The blades are super sharp and the handles are comfortable enough for better maneuverability when working in hard-to-reach or tight spots. 2. The cuts have all been consistently clean & sharp so less chance of disease from a torn/shredded/ragged improper cut and better chances of a faster healing time. 3. There is better edge retention with high quality steel blades so it requires less frequency to sharpen your blades and less chance of working with dull blades during the season. Granted, it’s based on volume but I hope to sharpen only once during a season. I admit it. I hate sharpening blades and that makes me guilty of using a dull blade longer than I should. Time will tell on this pair. 4. The locking mechanism works as it should and is bright orange which makes it easy to see, store & operate. 5. Nice touch having the self-cleaning sap groove that in addition to stopping the blades from sticking, will aid in the prevention of bacteria transmission from plant to plant. 6. Coil/spring failure has been my biggest issue with pruners in the past. - They rust, spring out, lock in place, don’t have pressure etc. They are a fix and repair daily while pruning project. They have turned a simple task into one of the most frustrating projects on the planet. The Fiskars has no visible coils or springs, they’re housed inside the unit and function smoothly like shock absorbers on a car. So far, working without malfunctions has allowed me to develop a rhythm and get more accomplished without straining my wrist. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the performance, quality, and price. Getting rid of all the other pairs. I also noticed that these are the only pruners I have with their name etched on it. Definitely 5 stars!!! -P.S. These come with a lifetime guarantee.

No complaints, they do what they are supposed to and are very handy for my houseplants and small pruning jobs in the back yard.

Performance and Value These pruning shears deliver the high level of performance and sharp cutting edge that is expected from a reputable brand like Fiskars. They make clean and precise cuts through branches up to the rated capacity without stalling or tearing the wood. The value is excellent because they provide professional grade sharpness at a price point that is accessible for any home gardener. Design and Build Quality The build quality is remarkably solid and follows the consistent standard of the brand. The blades are nice and sharp right out of the packaging and the mechanical action is smooth. The handles are designed for a comfortable grip, which helps reduce hand fatigue during extended sessions in the yard. It is clear that these are built to be a durable and long term addition to a tool collection. My Verdict These shears are a great investment for anyone needing a sharp and reliable tool for yard maintenance because they combine consistent brand quality with a very effective cutting design.

I’ve been using the Fiskars Bypass Pruning Shears for a few weeks now, and they’ve exceeded my expectations. The blades are extremely sharp and make clean, precise cuts through branches and stems without crushing them. I’ve used them on roses, shrubs, and small tree branches, and they handle everything with ease. What really stands out is how comfortable and well-balanced they are. The grip feels secure, even during longer pruning sessions, and my hand doesn’t get tired or sore. The bypass design is perfect for live plants, leaving clean cuts that help plants heal faster. They also feel durable and well-made, not flimsy like cheaper pruners. The locking mechanism works smoothly and keeps the blades safely closed when not in use. Overall, these are high-quality pruning shears at a great price. If you’re a homeowner, gardener, or anyone who does regular yard work, these are a must-have. I’d absolutely buy them again and highly recommend them

I thought I lost my pruners so bought these. They work well and Im yding yhem even though I found my others. They are well balanced and easy to use.

Very good shears. Used them to cut branches in bushes. Probably used them to cut limbs I should have used my hand held chainsaw in but these cut right through them like a hot knife in butter.

They cut great. Nice and sharp. I ordered too heavy duty of a tool for retired and disabled hands.

Fácil de agarrar y sí, ¡corta madera dura de 1,6 cm! He tenido varias herramientas Fiskar y siempre he estado satisfecho con su calidad y durabilidad. Espero el mismo resultado aquí.

15年使用している同ブランドは軽く女性にも使い易い。何種類か持っているが全て壊れる事無く使用中。 こちらは持っているものより重く、若干大きめで男性向きかと思う。切れ味は確かです。

ممتاز وعملي ومتين

Excellent and sharp. Pruned back all my bushes in the fall no problems at all.

I'm extremely happy with this item
