Fiskars pruning shears use bypass blades for clean cuts on living growth. The blades are fully hardened and precision-ground steel designed to hold an edge longer.
Hand pruners list about 2-inch blades, while hedge shears list a 6-inch blade. Listed tool weights range from 0.39 pounds up to 1.3 pounds, depending on the model.
Fiskars pruning tools are described for cutting stems and light branches. Hedge shears are intended for trimming and shaping hedges and decorative shrubs.
Fiskars blades are fully hardened, precision-ground steel and feature a low-friction blade coating that resists rust and reduces gumming, which helps the edges stay sharper longer.
