Fiskars PowerGear2 Hedge Shears

The patented gear mechanism works by multiplying your force as you squeeze the handles. This provides up to three times more power on every cut, making it significantly easier to slice through dense foliage without needing to exert extra physical effort.

Not at all. Weighing in at 2.4 pounds, these shears are designed to be lightweight while maintaining durability. The inclusion of shock-absorbing bumpers also helps reduce the impact at the end of each cut, which minimizes hand and arm fatigue during extended yard work.

The blades feature a low-friction coating specifically designed to resist rust and prevent sap buildup. This keeps the shears moving smoothly through branches and makes cleanup much easier after you finish pruning.

These shears have a cutting capacity of 0.5 inches. They are best suited for shaping hedges, trimming shrubs, and clearing smaller foliage rather than cutting through thick, woody branches.

The handles are designed with SoftGrip touchpoints, which provide a comfortable, non-slip hold. This design improves your control over the tool, especially when you are reaching for awkward angles or working in damp conditions.

Fiskars backs this product with a full lifetime warranty. This covers the tool against defects in materials and workmanship, giving you peace of mind regarding the long-term durability of the hardened steel blades and construction.
