Forged Steel Pruning Shears

These shears are designed for precision tasks like harvesting herbs, pruning small shrubs, and crafting. Because they are 6 inches long and feature a traditional bonsai design, they are best suited for delicate work rather than cutting thick, woody branches.

Yes. Since these are made from forged carbon steel rather than stainless steel, they are prone to rust if left wet. Always wipe the blades clean and dry them thoroughly after each use, and consider applying a light coat of oil if you live in a humid environment.

Absolutely. The shears feature an ambidextrous design, meaning the handle shape and blade alignment are balanced to work effectively for both left- and right-handed users.

These shears follow a traditional bonsai design, which is more compact and lightweight than standard garden bypass pruners. They offer finer control for intricate cuts, making them more versatile for indoor tasks like office work or crafting in addition to light gardening.

To keep the blades performing at their best, you can use a fine-grit sharpening stone or a diamond file to touch up the edge periodically. Ensure you follow the original bevel angle of the blade to maintain the clean, precise cutting action.
