Yeoman Garden Scissors

By-pass blades work like a pair of scissors, where two blades slide past each other to create a clean, precise cut. This design is ideal for living, green stems because it minimizes bruising and helps the plant heal faster compared to anvil-style pruners.

These shears are specifically optimized for green, leafy growth and soft stems. While they are durable, they are not designed for heavy-duty woody branches, which would be better suited for a pair of loppers or anvil pruners.

Yes, the design is ambidextrous. The ergonomic grip is shaped to accommodate both left and right-handed users comfortably.

The shears are designed for easy maintenance. Simply wipe the blades down with a damp cloth after each use to remove sap and debris, and occasionally apply a light machine oil to the pivot point to keep the action smooth.

The shears feature an ergonomic grip designed to reduce strain, and the integrated spring mechanism helps the blades open automatically after each cut. This combination makes them comfortable for extended use, though individual comfort can vary based on hand size.
