Garden Shear
After a long day of gardening, you don't want to be tired and sore. To avoid stiffness and other problems, you should look for garden shears with an ergonomic design, which includes:
Pruning shears, like other cutting tools, are very dependent on the sharpness and quality of the blade. In addition to preferably being made of stainless steel, it's good if you can take your secateurs apart to sharpen the blade or replace other parts, and that these extra parts can easily be found in a shop. It's also important that the secateurs do well maintaining their sharpness over time.
A pruning shear of fine quality isn't always cheap so it's a good idea to take care of it to make it last longer. We've found this guide for you to help you keep your shears nice and sharp.
