Corona Bypass Pruning Shear

Bypass pruners work like scissors, with two blades passing each other to create a clean, precise cut. This is ideal for living, green stems because it minimizes damage to the plant tissue and promotes faster healing.

Yes, the forged steel blade is designed to be resharpened. Regular maintenance with a sharpening stone will keep the edge clean and ensure the tool continues to cut smoothly over many seasons.

The two-handed design provides significantly more leverage than a standard one-handed pruner, making it much easier to cut through thicker branches. The long steel handles allow you to use your body weight and both arms to complete the cut with less effort.

While these are designed for general pruning, the two-handed leverage allows you to comfortably tackle branches up to 1.5 to 2 inches in diameter, depending on the wood density. Always avoid forcing the tool through branches that are too thick to prevent blade damage.

The handles feature a non-slip, comfortable grip that helps reduce hand fatigue during extended gardening sessions. Because you use both hands, the weight is distributed more evenly, which is generally less taxing on your wrists than using a single-handed tool.
